HMG -GitBook
Dear HMGians,
I have started converting HMG documentation in GitBook (https://www.gitbook.com/book/rathinagir ... lp/details)
The advantages of GitBook are:
- more people can contribute online.
- you can search the whole book by any keyword (Try it! You will enjoy!)
- can be downloaded at anytime in PDF/epub/mobi format (with table of contents and search enabled of course!)
Anybody willing to join with me?

Re: HMG -GitBook
Thank you Serge.
I have added you as a collaborator and sent an email to you.
You can download the GitBook Editor for windows from here https://www.gitbook.com/editor/windows
First you go around and make familiar how things are managed. Then you can easily contribute.

Re: HMG -GitBook
Thank you.
Since both online and offline editing are possible, many can contribute for this book.
For example, today I have added the following in the documents:
HMG and Alternate Syntax:
All over this help document you can find that there are two types of syntax available for the definition of various controls. One is traditional '@ row, col CONTROLTYPE controlname' syntax and the alternate syntax with 'define....end' statements. Each synatx is having its own merits and demerits.
@ nRow, nCol CONTROLTYPE controlname
While '@ nRow, nCol CONTROLTYPE controlname' syntax is a single line simple syntax it requires the sequence of various properties of that control as it is. For example the following statement is right:
Where as the following is wrong
In other words, you have to memorize the sequentail order of the various properties also.
Alternate Syntax: DEFINE CONTROLTYPE controlname:
In the case of alternate syntax, the control definition is between DEFINE....END statements and the property values can be in any order. That is the advantage of alternate syntax though it requires more lines of coding.
For example, both the following are right:
