I'm a [[http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?WikiFaeries|WikiFaerie]], and I work on the ObstacleCourse.

I also participate on [[http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/moinmoin/LionKimbro|the Python Wiki,]] and [[http://www.seapig.org/LionKimbro|the Seattle Python Interest Group wiki.]]

=== Documentation Work ===

I am very interested in documentation.

Some things I want to do here:

 * Write a self-training course - development at ObstacleCourse
 * Write a MetaDocumentation page
 * Write Cheat Sheets - wrote XrcCheatSheet- yay!
 * Write Code Start Points - wrote CodeStartingPoints and XrcStartingPoint
 * Write Demonstrations
 * Perform Categorizing
 * More Diagramming! - (if we had [[http://twistedmatrix.com/users/jh.twistd/moin/moin.cgi/moindotProcessor|MoinDot]] installed, I'd be in 7th heaven...) 

==== MetaDocumentation ====

MetaDocumentation would include a description of available documentation,
including tutorials, the ObstacleCourse, the wxWindows API docs,
the recipes, and cheet sheets. More is likely to follow.

==== Cheat Sheets ====

Cheat``Sheets would be pages where people put cheat sheets.

  {{{CheatSheet = Reference + Density}}}

Unified by Category``Cheat``Sheet.

==== Code Start Points ====

Generally, when you start coding, you copy and paste from some framework.

It'd be nice to have a catalog of starting points and their advantages.

==== Demonstrations ====

There should be small, 5-10 line demonstrations of every control.

Because frameworks are sometimes required to properly hang a control,
the demonstrations can refer to standardized start points to hang
the control in. (a "harness"..?)

==== Categorizing ====

We should have {{{CategoryRecipe}}} on each recipe,
as well as a category tag for the recipe subtype.

==== More Diagramming! ====

Diagrams are powerful.

=== Thoughts on PythonCard ===

 * Needs let draw on card.
 * Needs make wxPython easy. (Yes, it ''is'' hard.)
 * Needs good defaults, w/o code req.
   * Go to next/another frame ("Card" in HyperCard.)
   * Right clicking on lists generate menus, etc.,.

=== My Personal Cheat Sheet ===

wxNew``Id()

|| wxStatic``Text( ''parent'', ''id'', ''label'' ) || wxALIGN_LEFT/CENTER/RIGHT, Get``Label/Set``Label ||
|| wxButton( ''parent'', ''id'', ''label'' ) || EVT_BUTTON( ''parent'', ''id'', ''func'' ) ||
|| Add( ''win'', ''prop'', ''flag'', ''border'' ) || wxGROW, wxSHAPED, wx(ALIGN_)L/T/R/B/C ||
