[MPlayer-users] [draft] mplayer quickstart guide

[Arpi]

Hi,

> I have written a short mplayer quickstart guide that I want to replace
> the current README file.  The README currently just says "Go read
> DOCS/documentation.html" which is quite of reading material.  My
> README is designed to teach the basic steps to get mplayer up and
> running.  It does not intend to go in depth, for this we have the docs
> after all.

> This is just a rough draft.  Please let me know what you think, so
> that I can revise it.  Is it detailed enough?  Did I miss any
> important parts?  Should I put in the commands that you use to do
> stuff like 'cp XYZ ~' or is it enough to say "Copy XYZ to your
> homedirectory"?  Is the wording clear and understandable?

heh
why don't you copy (and convert html->txt) this part of the
documentation.html? there is already a quick-install-howto right at the
beginning, very similar (but more complete, about win32 codec, dvd libs,
codecs) to yours
