[Coco] nitrOS-9 documentation

[Boisy G. Pitre]

Frank,

The only documentation for NitrOS-9 consists of the two links on the  
www.nitros9.org website "Getting Started with NitrOS-9" and "The  
NitrOS-9 Level 2 Windowing System", as well as the original Tandy  
OS-9 Level I and Level II Manuals.    The former should be read by  
anyone new to NitrOS-9.

I've been having the "NitrOS-9 Technical Reference" in a partial  
state for some time now, but commitments have prevented me from  
continuing work on it.  That particular manual probably wouldn't have  
helped you in your situation anyway though.  It also happens to be  
one of the largest in the series.

I've found that between the existing NitrOS-9 documentation and the  
Cloud-9 documentation that comes with our products, most issues can  
be solved.  Granted, there are some that aren't, and solving them  
must come through perseverance and experience.  And of course, forums  
like this are helpful too.

What is needed is a suite of comprehensive manuals that totally  
replace the existing OS-9 documentation in terms of both breadth and  
depth.  I've worked on that for some time, and the result so far is  
the two manuals already up on the www.nitros9.org website.  When the  
rest will be done, I truly cannot say.
