Re Hello,
   I'm beginning to give a serious look to 
https://www.yade-dem.org/sphinx/index.html and I have already a small 
remark, and a maybe more conceptual one

- the small remark is for the 1st page I read (after the welcome page) : 
https://www.yade-dem.org/sphinx/basics.html#f1
Typing "yade", or "yade-whatever" in my shell does not launch yade, as 
it is stated in this page... I know that it is a not yade issue, but a 
linux one, and as far as I am concerned I can fortunately launch yade 
correctly. But such "problems" in the very first lines of the very first 
pages of a documentation seem to me to be very discourageing for 
beginners. So maybe it would be good to modify it ??

- the more conceptual one : how to deal with (modify ?) this 
documentation ? If I (or anyone else) have other remarks about this 
documentation, what should we do ? Sending mails each time, hoping that 
Vaclav will correct it - if it appears to be useful ? I guess that, for 
Vaclav first, it would not be a good idea... So, that's my general 
question, how do you consider this documentation and the use you should 
do with it (compared to the wiki for example) ?

   For me, who's beginning only to discover it, it appears as very very 
powerful tool, but I wonder how it will be possible to sustain/improve it ?

Jerome
