Needed Tools

You need the following tools

* File Manager

* Text Editor

* iTar archiver

* Thwab scripts (optional)

The file manager is the place where

you look to files and folders, it's

usually accessed (in some GUI environments)

through "Home" icon or "My computer" icon,

examples for file managers could be

Konqueror, Nautilus, Midnight-commander (MC),

or the usual command line tools.

Every body should know what a text editor is

(not word processors just plain text editors),

GUI examples could be Kate, "kedit", "kwrite", "gedit", ...etc. Many people like the super advanced text editors like GNU Emacs or Vim.

We could have our own text editor in the future.

One could compress the folder with standard

archiving tool like the GNU TAR with BZip2

but it would take too long to open a single

member file, in order to get the best speed

(with almost the same good compression)

One need to use the iTar tool.

One could use any common archives

(like Tarball or Zip file) then send it to

a fellow in some team who will generate the required iTar file.

There many scripts that do the following things:

* filter the text

* add helping stubs or remove them

* update table of contents

* generate search cache

* convert from/to file formats

it's very easy to write more
