<p>Hypertext mess</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>Why is this such a total hypertext mess? Currently a user who wants to learn how to do X faces the following:<br /> <br /> '''HOWTO X:'''<br /> <br /> In order to do X, do Y first. You may also want to do<br /> AlternativeY, which will require you to create a new<br /> user, but is a ReallyGoodWay(TM) to eventually do X.<br /> <br /> The user wants to go the ReallyGoodWay(TM).<br /> <br /> '''HOWTO AlternativeY:'''<br /> <br /> Oh, did we mention that you also need to setup a svn<br /> server, a bugzilla and an accounting system?<br /> <br /> The user decides that ReallyGoodWay(TM) is the enemy of GettingStuffDone(R).<br /> <br /> '''HOWTO Y:'''<br /> <br /> In order to do Y, do A, B, and C first. Then...<br /> <br /> User steps into.<br /> <br /> '''HOWTO A:'''<br /> <br /> This tutorial assumes that you have studied the K, L, M, N,<br /> O, P, and Q tutorials thoroughly.<br /> <br /> User postpones A.<br /> <br /> '''HOWTO B:'''<br /> <br /> apt-get yadda yadda yadda<br /> <br /> User is on ArchLinux and doesn't have apt-get.<br /> <br /> '''HOWTO C:'''<br /> <br /> This tutorial assumes you have chosen to do AlternativeY.<br /> <br /> At this point the user gives up having lost 3 hours.</div>
