The Help > Tutorial is mostly written, please read and criticize. It's pretty big, but not complete of course. Maybe later I'll break it into a basic tutorial and an advanced tutorial.
I'm also interested to see how it comes up with regards to fonts, window size, etc. Posting a screenshot of the tutorial to the site would probably make sense.
BUG: When I zoom out from the tutorial page, it ultimately crashes. This looks like an instance of this bug:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=859364&gro...
which could not be reproduced outside of my machine. So please test the tutorial by zooming out as far as you can, and report if you get a crash.
Now I will write an XSLT transformation to automatically generate an SVG page with the keyboard shortcuts for reference, also to be linked from Help. I think it's nicer and more instructive to present Inkscape help in Inkscape, instead of running an external browser :)

Hmm, not a bad idea...
We should also do something like that for generating about.svg, really.
Btw, we should probably have rules in the makefiles to generate this, and mabe a generic "xslt processor" script that is generated by configure, in order to use whatever XSLT processor is available on the system (be it Sablotron or xsltproc, or whatever).

Good work bulia. I learned more from your help tutorial in five minutes than I have in the past few months of fumbling and mumbling. It would be good to have the entire help tutorial in SVG form. Is this what you have in mind? This could include detailed examples of more complex actions, how to change preferences etc.etc.
I have attached two screenshots. The first is general. The second shows a small icon misplacement that occurs with my nachine. Let me know if you want any specific shots.

I do not get this bug on my machine. Win32. OS2000. build0402030318. Zoom out goes down to 4% or 5% then sticks (or is the bug you mean?) but does not crash. Zoom in goes normally from 4% to 25600%

I agree
All in all, Inkscape is smooth at the moment and I reckon it is going to get a good reception when it hits the air.
