Use of the wiki for the User Guide

Once a set of updates has been chosen and folded into the master document RISC OS 5 User Guide, the page’s content will be reduced so that it is ready for further updates to be defined against the current master.

The prefix "UG: " in these Wiki page names is intended to keep this User Guide update material distinct from other areas of the Wiki which treat the same topics. (The chapter titles as displayed above have this prefix omitted).

In addition, each page may be given the category “User Guide” giving quick access to all the related pages in the Wiki.
