these were some final editing changes ... couple of typos ... a couple of re-wordings. Pgs through 20 are good-to-go. sw

    1: \label{Docs_Overview}A LON-CAPA course is managed through
    2: the \textbf{Course Documents} screen and accessed by selecting \textbf{DOCS} on the Remote Control or Main Menu. This screen allows you to create new resources and arrange LON-CAPA resources from
    3: the LON-CAPA network. 
    4: 
    5: \textbf{Main Course Documents} make up the course itself. Students use the navigation 
    6: controls to move through the Main Course Documents. Main Course Documents are listed on
    7: the \textbf{Navigate Course Contents} screen. Main Course Documents were added to
    8: LON-CAPA in 2003, so pre-2003 courses (as well as courses deliberately created in
    9: the old style) will not have Main Course Documents.
   10: 
   11: \textbf{Supplemental Course Documents} are attached to the course but do
   12: not appear in the main course sequence. Students access these documents by
   13: selecting \textbf{DOCS} on the Remote Control or Main Menu. Supplemental Course Documents
   14: are particularly useful for auxiliary files that may not be directly viewable
   15: or usable in a browser, such as PowerPoint presentations or Word documents --
   16: some of which may not work on all students' computers.
   17: 
   18: These the two types of Course Documents are essentially identical,
   19: except Main Course Documents have some options not available
   20: to the Supplemental Course Documents.
   21: 
   22: NOTE: These capabilities provide instructors the ability to extend
   23: already existing courses, or personalize courses with their own syllabi
   24: or information pages. Main Course Documents and Supplemental Course Documents
   25: do not carry over from one course to another. To create
   26: documents for use in multiple courses, please talk to your LON-CAPA
   27: Domain Coordinator about becoming an Author. For more information about becomming an Author, see
   28: the LON-CAPA Author's Manual available online at \underbar{http://help.lon-capa.org}.
