==Help Editing this page==

* Read the marvelous [[Media:RheaManual.pdf|Rhea Help Manual]] written by Nate Orlow. 

*Getting started
** To start, click the "Help" button above and read what's there.
** To edit pages, first log in (with your purdue account to create pages. Then click "edit" (under "Page" above) and remember to click "Save Page" after you are done editting.).
** To get a quick idea what works how, click "edit" on this page to see how to do the things visible on this page. 
** Note that the "edit" mode has a spell-checking feature:  look for red-underlined stuff.

*Creating pages
** To create a new page named "B" from a page A, go to edit page A and insert the text <nowiki>[[B]]</nowiki>. (Note that "B" is like a web address for a webpage. Each page also has a name, but you can call the link anything (like fancy_title) by typing <nowiki>[[B|fancy_title]]</nowiki> rather than just <nowiki>B</nowiki>. After saving, find the new red link on page A that appeared. When you click it, you'll note you are now on page B (which of course is empty at this point). 
** NOTE: if the "new" link comes out blue, instead of red, you chose a title of an existing page and did not create a new one. The blue link gets you simply to the already existing one. Use distinctive names for your new creations! 
** Be sure to place <nowiki>"[[Category:MA265Fall2010MominAl]]"</nowiki> on top of a new page.  That way it will be parsed by the system as belonging to this course. (If you use click the "Create a child page" button in the left-tab while on this page, this will be done automatically.)
