Hi, it's finally done.


http://demo.civicspacelabs.org/home/files/adminhelp.tgz


I have extracted the executive summary pages from the handbook for 60
modules and converted them to administration help for each modules help
hook.


Each page has the "case 'admin/help#modulename': $output=t("" appending
to the beginning of the page.


Each page has had the internal URL replaced by variable's as required
by the t() function.


Each page has an array of values of variables
array('%administrationhelp' => url('/admin/help);....)


I need volunteers to help with either committing patches.  Or testing
to make sure the patches will work.  The 31 Drupal core modules will be
one patch.


If these patches are broken I can relatively quickly run scripts to
automate their production.


If you have style, formating suggestions, question we will work with
the Documentation team to update the administration help writing
guidelies for the Drupal documentation handbook.
Cheers,
Kieran

Now that I have finished using Drupal for writing documentation I'll be
filing a bunch of bugs caused by crazy reloading when writing html
tags.   That's why the first post is doubled up.

I was thinking you should maintain a simple list or table to help us
keep track of which ones still need to be done.  I'll follow up with
the list of ones I've done in the meantime...

If anyone downloaded the tar ball earlier the Aggregator.code file was
actually a copy of the tarball itself.  I have since corrected it.
