Jmol wiki structure

Ok, so I started not so much restructuring, but more trying to add structure. Who would have thought that the information of one "little" ;) program is so difficult to structure. Just shifting around the information that is already there seems to do the trick quite nicely.

I've added some extra templates and sections, and made sure that the "main" templates are the most prominent ones (i.e. biggest box), and put in a logical order (I hope). So first you download it, then install, then you run it, then you need the documentation. I think that this is the most used order in any kind of software documentation.

There is still information missing on installing the applet for a web page. I read on the mailing list that the jar files are now separable for smaller download size, this is all useful info to put in a special page. I myself never did used jmol online, so I didn't make a wikipage for this (yet). -- Pimpim 18:01, 30 May 2007 (CEST)

Good work, Pimpim. A new look with fresh eyes is always helpful. I think that "Java Web Start" is probably more a "Running Jmol" subsection than a "Development" one. I can probably find some time to write something about "installing" the applet for a web page, as that's my main way to use Jmol. --AngelHerraez 21:57, 3 June 2007 (CEST)

Mailing lists

the sourceforge mail list websites don't work for me, I always end up with 'internal server error' or 'no forum'. Therefore I added links to some the mail-archive.com mailing list mirror which seems reasonable enough and not overloaded with advertisements. -- Pimpim 19:11, 6 June 2007 (CEST)
