GTK+ client's docs are out-of-date

[costela]

Hi,

The completeness graph that can be seen ​here doesn't actually exist anymore. Apparently it hasn't existed for a while.

Could someone with write access to the help directory please upload a new screenshot for all newer versions without this feature?

Unfortunately I couldn't find out exactly when this feature was removed, so I just marked this as Version:2.00+, but if someone can find the commit that did it, please change the Version accordingly.

The issue is that *most* of that documentation is out-of-date, as can be seen from the intro page's call for volunteers. Picking out that screenshot seems to miss the point -- if I update that screenshot, most of the rest of that page is still obsolete.

The help pages need a ground-up rewrite along the same lines as ​http://www.transmissionbt.com/help/gtk/2.3x/html/preferences.html but in order for that to happen, someone needs to volunteer to do it.

Tweaking the ticket's summary & stats to reflect this...

Hi,

I would like to volunteer to get this documentation updated. How can I help out and what are the requirements? Is it not possible to merge the existing documentation with trac or would you prefer it if someone re-wrote this with HTML5 & CSS3?

Hi octoquad,

Thanks for volunteering to update the documentation!

At this point, nearly all of the GTK+ documentation is badly out-of-date except for the preferences dialog's help page. If you think it would be easier to start with a clean slate and use HTML5/CSS3, that would be fine.

jordan,

Thanks for the getting back to me! I will get this going soon, I just need setup my dev environment.
