+wwweditor
+=========
+
+Description
+-----------
+wwweditor is a web site editor. Some features:
+
+  * WYSIWYG editing.
+  * Supports multiple pages in a "project"
+  * Templates:
+      - Different directories use a different template.
+      - Updated automatically
+  * Version control with GIT
+
+
+Limitations
+-----------
+
+  * Not yet possible to create templates or directories.
+  * No git push/pull.
+  * No FTP or SSH support.
+
+Also, you can't use wwweditor to create your web design. It's not meant
+to do that.
+
+
+How to use
+----------
+Find or create a layout for your site. This should consist of a single HTML
+file and associated style sheets and graphical elements. Rename the HTML
+file to template.html and the files in a new directory. Edit the template
+to make it editable (see below).
+
+Optionally, you may keep your web site under version control with GIT.
+wwweditor can't create new repositories yet, so you'll have to do that
+yourself and add all layout files.
+
+
+How to make an existing HTML file an editable template
+------------------------------------------------------
+This is still not possible to do from the user interface. Open the HTML
+code in a text editor and locate the tag which should be editable. Then
+change it as follows:
+
+    <div> from this </div>
+    <div><!-- @contents --> to this </div>
+
+You should only add the <!-- @contents --> marker on tags such as `<div>`
+or `<td>`. If the text you want to make editable is inside a formatting tag
+(like `<span>` and `<b>`), a paragraph (`<p>`), header tag (h1-h6) or some
+other tag with special meaning, then you can wrap it in a `<div>` tag first.
+Also, never put the marker on a `<table>`, `<tr>` or `<textarea>` tag!
+
+You may also want to add a menu with link to your sub pages, so you don't
+have to add it in each page.
+
+If you want the change the layout, then just replace the template and open
+and save all pages in your project. Warning! A lot of things can go wrong
+during this process! Please make a backup (or make sure everthing is
+committed in GIT, if you use that).
