Purpose of This Tutorial


The purpose of this tutorial is to make you familiar with the user interface and the essential editing functionality in the SDL Suite. This tutorial is designed as a guided tour through the SDL Suite, where a number of hands-on exercises should be performed on your computer as you read this chapter.

We have on purpose selected a simple example that should be easy to understand. It is assumed that you have a basic knowledge about SDL -- this chapter is not a tutorial on SDL.

This tutorial addresses primarily persons with no or little experience of the SDL Suite.

Once you have completed the exercises in this tutorial, you may want to continue with the tutorials that are presented in:

Note: Platform differences

It is possible to run the tutorials on UNIX as well as on Windows platforms. Should there be any differences between the platforms, this is indicated in the text with the markers "on UNIX", "Windows only", etc. This is also indicated in the platform-specific screen shots.

When such platform indicators are found, please pay attention only to the instructions and screen shots that are valid for your platform.
