Anyway, I'm trying to come up with a generic chart for scripts that explain (to us noobs) what all the user-adjustable parameters do. The idea is that the chjart could be copied and reused for any script with only the text being changed.
Obviously some scripts will have many more parameters to define than others, so the ability to extend the chart is necessary.
If I (we) could make this work, than anyone with a question of what the script parameters are meant to control could FIRST,
-make the chart, and THEN ask for assistance in filling it. If this was set as "Noob Etiquette Policy" (
ie, "The don't pi$$ off Mr. Fife" policy), then people would be forced to participate in the Wiki, in a very structured manner, and Mr. Fife wouldn't have to go in there and make notes about how useless their contributions are (
-thus deterring others from contributing in the future, IMO).
Can I get some help with implementing this chart?
I barely know anything about html, so I can't figure out how to make this chart easy to edit for others who can't (or shouldn't) wade through code to insert text.
The chart example I have created is for the script "MD Lightning6", and is located here:
http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/User:SterlingRexAny suggestions on the chart (such as cell size increase for text, etc) are very much appreciated. This is an effort to structure
some of the chaos that is an unfortunate part of the CHDK Wiki.
Thank you for looking. All I can contribute here is a bit of testing and making charts, and I will do what I can to share the burden here so that I may share in the bounty of information.
