I have gone ahead and started a wiki page "Software FAQs"
https://clasweb.jlab.org/wiki/index.php/Software_FAQs

I want to encourage everyone to add their questions to this page.

Cheers,
Whitney

Hello Whitney;

Here's where you could play a role.

We will soon establish a 'frequently-asked questions' section on
the Wiki.  If you re-word your initial inquiry in slightly more
general language that would be great.  For example:
- is there some way to capture the graphics in a .png, .jpg ,etc. file?
- how do I know I have the latest release?  ... how do I get it?

Also, you could supply the answers now that you know them.

We certainly value bug-reporting, and we could also use outside
help in documentation.  It is sometimes hard for the developers to
document code which at the time seems obvious to them.

                                 regards, Mac
