We have chosen to present the help-files as wiki pages for a number of reasons
<big>[http://wiki.lifeguideonline.org/w/images/0/06/EssentialGuideLifeGuide010319.pdf Download the Essential Guide to LifeGuide Intervention Development]
* We can update them instantly so that you do not need to wait for months on end until we bring out a new version of the pdf help manual before learning about the new features
* We hope you will find it easier to find what you are looking for
* Wiki pages allow user-generated content. So if there are any examples of logic functions that you wish to share or, in the nature of the open-source software, if there are any new features that you have created you can share it here with other LifeGuide users.
