I wrote up a few paragraphs about using the tracer, in OpenOffice format, here:

...if anyone would like to help in documenting this stuff... Maybe produce an SVG document. We could use some help.

Since it doesn't really qualify as a tutorial at this point, it is labeled as a "quick-start". I figure it can still go in the tutorials menu though.
Please let me know what changes should be made.
A couple questions I currently have are: What was the font that was used for the word "tutorial" in the header of the tutorial docs? I'd like to keep the "image" of the docs as cohesive as possible.
And, should I slightly modify the color scheme of the header/footer since it's not technically a tutorial?
Otherwise, a relatively simple task I'm going to do next is convert this and the other tutorial documents into basic layered docs if no one has any issues with it. I figure they will probably need maintenance in the future, so it would probably help to just get that out of the way.
