I was going to do something like this but stopped as it is difficult to create a manual that will suit everyone. What i mean by this is that DHPOS has so many settings. E.g. On your website, when you mention the error correction, When you press F5 to Void a line/ whole transaction, you say that pressing ESC will void the whole transaction, BUT this only happens when you set (in posconfg "go to after sale") go to main screen. If you set it to "start next sale" (or what ever it is) then pressing ESC after you hit F5 (void) it will return you to the sale, not voiding it.

That was just an example.

As you get more into details you find it increasingly difficult.

But goodluck anyway :-)

I also have that wiki site in the works, thinking on changing the wiki software to one that is more user friendly if any one has any suggestions, currently I am using mediawiki
