I've read pretty much all the stickys here, tried to bodge my way through the text files that came with Litestep, have googled numerous times, and have tried using the search function here (but it seems to be down temporarily) but have yet to find what I'm looking for.
When I first went to edit the popup.rc file, I was blasted with a bunch of code I didn't understand. Simply by staring at it for a while I was able to get the just of it, but still could not really understand it. Being one to try his hardest to follow directions, I did as the people here have said and tried reading the documents in "lifestep>module docs" for help. Once again I was blasted with a bunch of stuff I didn't understand. It gives examples, which is great and all, but why would I want examples if there is no good explanation for them? Like what the heck do the "$" signs mean? Where and when are you supposed to put certain commands and such? I really cannot find anything at all on the basic syntax for whatever sort of language is used to LS and it is making me frustrated. I would love to learn how to use it but I really cannot find anywhere that will explain it.
If I have overlooked a text file somewhere, or missed an important post here please direct me to it so that I can learn to operate this a little more efficiently and customize it to my likings. I'm willing to spend however long it takes to learn how to use LS, but I just need to be shown where to go to do so.
