well...I came up with a theoretical preface/intro...shred it as you so desire (knows some one will)
*************************************************************
The xlib guru is a guide for the flash app capable Ti z80 series calculators, and for using Tr1p1ea's amazing xlib application. This guide will be a collaborative project, and I hope you will find it an invaluable resource in your advanced basic programming.
Therefore, first of all, we will make the following assumptions. You have one of the supported calculators, you want to learn how to make advanced xlib enhanced programs and games, and you have a link cable to transmit files. Well, if not, this guide might be of little to no use to you, but if so then let us press on.
The guide will be split into chapters, which cover a variety of topics within a similar skill range or purpose, and each of chapters will be split into a set of specific sections. All sections will be further split into "Concept's Theory", Tutorials and Examples "," Quiz and Challenge and the "Miscellaneous" page. The "Concept's Theory" is an explanation of the underlying principals used in this concept and its purpose and usefulness. "Tutorials and Examples" is where you will be walked through how to do something hands on, and samples of the concept's use will be provided. After you have had a good look through the other sections and want to test your knowledge, "Quiz and Challenge" will provide you a good place to practice. One or more quizzes and challenges will be waiting to allow you to evaluate your skills and see if you really are ready to move on. "Miscellaneous" is where various informations, links, and other such stuff which does not fit in the other categories.
Now then, a humble suggestion…if you going to skip a chapter, take at least the quiz first…you may know less than you think. Also, pre-planning is always a good idea, it will make things easier indeed. Well, it highly doubtful you will be swayed by this advice…so, good luck.
