Pulling updates from help.loncapa.org.

This brings the CVS repository up to date with the work Jay-Lynne has done,
*except* for the stuff on the DOCs screen, which as mentioned in the
meeting will require a bit of programming work.

\label{Docs_Adding_Course_Doc}
To add Course content, log in to the course you want to add content to. On the
remote control, click \textbf{DOCS} to display the \textbf{Course
Document} screen.

There are four ways you can add a new document to the course:

\begin{itemize}

\item Upload a document from your harddrive such as Powerpoint presentations or
PDF files (\ref{Docs_Uploading_From_Harddrive}),
\item Import a document from the LON-CAPA network (\ref{Docs_Importing_LON-CAPA_Resource}),
\item Add an external resource (\ref{Docs_Adding_External_Resource}), or
\item Create a document from a prepared template (\ref{Docs_Creating_From_Template}).

\end{itemize}

You can also organize documents into folders for structure,
(\ref{Docs_Adding_Folders}) or add a \textbf{Navigate Content} page,
which creates a resource in the course that displays the Navigation
Course Content screen.What is Navigate Course Content screen?
This could make a good first page for a course. 

The resources are listed in the order they will be viewed. The first resource 
listed is the starting page a user will see when they access the course. To 
change the order of the resources, click on the blue up or down arrows next to 
resource you wish to move. Repeat this until you have all the resources in the 
order you want. You can also \textbf{Remove} or \textbf{Rename} a
resource by clicking on the 
blue word next to the resource. Changes made to the course documents, such as 
changing the order, adding new resources, renaming or removing resources will 
be visible the next time you log in, or by clicking the 
\textbf{re-initializing course} button 
on the course document screen, whichever comes first.
