Thanks, that was the missing piece.

The wiki pages can be printed to .pdf's; see menu on left side of page.

Then you can .zip them and e-mail the .pdf's and although there will be connection charges it will be quick to send/receive and they can be browsed without be connected.

Also, identification/classification of the uses and users of the documentation. Design for referencing other resources outside of ...

I have found that the documentation seems a little fragmented. Maybe it is just me but when I go to look for a specific topic I sometimes find it hard to gather what I need. Recently, I wanted to study lofting and the documentation seemed out of sync with the software (.17). Another time I wanted to...

I think this is part of what i too experienced.

Caused me confusion too.

That helps. I have been trying to describe the necessary conditions in terms of points, lines and faces and i may have it: if i can pass from (an inside of) a (closed)face to another (closed) face without being in either face at some point then it is not valid.
