<p> This document provides an overview of non-administration aspects of the
WASD package.  Intended more for the end-user authoring documents or wishing to
use some particular behaviour, most of the aspects descibed here can be used
without recourse to the site administrator.  Originally intended for an
audience inside the organisation where WASD originated, at a time when the Web
and web technologies were in their infancy (i.e. last century :-) the document
is focused on WASD specifics and admittedly is a little dated in the some of
the aspects covered but not in the detail.  The descriptions in this document
are kept current.

<p> The document <span class="high bold">assumes</span> a basic understanding of web 
technologies and uses some terms without explaining them (e.g. HTTP, HTML, 
URL, CGI, etc.)  It is <span class="high bold">not</span> a tutorial on writing HTML 
or any other documents.
