Looks promising. What tools do I need to have to make good use
of Wiki pages. I tried with lynx and managed to get the gist of
its contents - didn't try adding anything though, because after
a brief scan of some introductory stuff I decided that it was
not obviously easy to remove mistakes before they became world
readable. What if I made a mistake? Shock Horror!

I can enable cookies in lynx - Wiki seems to need these - but
do not have java - do I need to run java to contribute to Wiki?

Is there a single dense introductory document I can download
in one go, rather than staying online while I click on each
active link in turn? My rate of learning is slow and I have
to pay for the phone calls:-(

I'm loathe to install something as humungous as netscape on my
machine. Is this the best way if I want to contribute to Wiki?

Ted.
