+<title>Introduction</title>
+
+<para>&kjots; is a small program that helps you to write down some short
+notes and organizes them for you.</para>
+
+</chapter>
+
+<chapter id="using-kjots">
+<title>Using &kjots;</title>
+
+<para>&kjots; has two basic items used to organize your notes -
+<quote>Books</quote> and <quote>Pages</quote>.</para>
+
+<para>You can create a number of books in &kjots;, and each book can
+contain a number of pages, where you actually type your notes. Each book
+should be given a name (so you can find what you are looking for), as
+should each page. Although you aren't forced to give a page a name, it
+is sensible to do so.</para>
+
+<sect1 id="kjots-books">
+<title>Using Books</title>
+
+<para>To create a new book, use <keycombo action="simul">&Ctrl;&Shift;
+<keycap>N</keycap></keycombo> or the menu entry
+<menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu><guimenuitem>New
+Book</guimenuitem></menuchoice>, and you will be prompted to enter a
+name for the new book.</para>
+
+<para>The name of the new book should now appear in the left part of
+the window. If you want the book to be in your
+<quote>Bookmarks</quote>, use <keycombo action="simul">&Ctrl;
+<keycap>B</keycap></keycombo> or the menu entry <menuchoice>
+<guimenu>Bookmarks</guimenu><guimenuitem>Add Bookmark</guimenuitem>
+</menuchoice>. You can even organize your bookmarks in separate folders
+just as you probably do in &konqueror;.</para>
+
+<tip><para>If you want to have your books in a different order, you can
+simply drag and drop the book to the place where you want it to be.
+</para></tip>
+
+<para>Maybe you have noticed that there is no <quote>Save</quote> anywhere.
+This is not an error, &kjots; saves your books and pages automatically,
+so you will never lose that small note you write when you are on the phone
+and need to write down something in a hurry.</para>
+
+<para>You can also export an entire book as a text file or as a html file,
+using <menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu> <guimenuitem>Export book...
+</guimenuitem></menuchoice>. You will be then prompted to enter a
+location for the file to be saved. The format of an example saved book
+is shown below:</para>
+
+<screen>############
+# First page
+############
+Remember to go to the shops!
+
+#############
+# Useful code
+#############
+10 PRINT "HELLO WORLD"
+20 GOTO 10
+
+################
+# The third page
+################
+This is the third page and is an example for KJots.</screen>
+
+<para>Remember that the dialog where you are prompted for a filename is
+a standard &kde; dialog. That means it is just as easy to store the file
+on your local hard disk as it is to save it on a web server, ftp server
+or USB memory stick. So you can export as html and save it on a webserver,
+this way you always have your notes available to you.</para>
+</sect1>
+
+<sect1 id="kjots-pages">
+<title>Using Pages</title>
+
+<para>Pages are where you actually write whatever you are going to
+write. Once you have created a book, you can type text in the main text
+box.</para>
+
+<para>To create additional pages, you can use <keycombo action="simul">&Ctrl;
+<keycap>N</keycap></keycombo> or the menu entry
+<menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu><guimenuitem>New Page</guimenuitem>
+</menuchoice>, which will create a new page. Similarly, the current page
+can be removed using <menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu>
+<guimenuitem>Delete Page</guimenuitem></menuchoice>.</para>
+
+<tip><para>If you need to insert the current date and time while you are
+writing a note, you can use <keycombo action="simul">&Ctrl;<keycap>I
+</keycap></keycombo>.</para></tip>
+
+<para>So that you can get to the page you want to see, pages can (and
+should) be given a name. This can be done in the way you are used to:
+select the page you want to rename, wait a second and click it once more.
+You are then able to rename the page. Of course there is also a keyboard
+shortcut, you can use that at any time while writing a note. The shortcut
+is: <keycombo action="simul">&Ctrl;<keycap>M</keycap></keycombo>.</para>
+
+<para>An other way of renaming the page is by selecting a part of your note
+and then press <keycombo action="simul">&Ctrl;<keycap>T</keycap></keycombo>,
+the selected text will instantly become the title of the page.</para>
+
+<tip><para>If you want fast access to a particular page, you
+can assign a keyboard shortcut to that page. Go to <menuchoice>
+<guimenu>Settings</guimenu><guimenuitem>Configure Shortcuts...
+</guimenuitem></menuchoice>.</para></tip>
