NOTE! THIS VERSION OF aTbREF IS NO LONGER UPDATED - SEE PANEL AT PAGE HEAD.
"aTbRef" is a reference file to some of Tinderbox 's objects and functions. It includes changes up to and including Version 4.2.5.
A Change Log section lists significant per-release changes since v2.4.0, the version upon which the first release of aTbRef was based. Those users who always update to the current version can generally just ignore the text's references to version numbers (apart from checking the most recent changes) whereas users of older versions can easily see whether their installed version includes certain improvements or not.

SEARCHING aTbRef
From the v4.1.0 aTbRef release the HTML pages include a Google search box in the footer. Note that if using a local copy you must be online to use the search; Google will search the online pages - that might possibly be more recent than your own - and the search result links will likewise be to the online pages. If you've downloaded the TBX source, simply use Tinderbox's own Find tool to look for things.
If reading the TBX source file, ignore the UTILS section which contains agents, prototypes, etc., used to create and maintain this file.
EXPORTING aTbRef
By design aTbRef is a document intended to be exported to HTML and the TBX of this file includes the necessary templates to enable that process. A default (custom internal) text export template is also defined and set to avoid the problems reported in older aTbRef versions when using Nakakoji views.
REMARKS AND CAVEATS
This file is supposed to go along with the existing manual & release notes (in the app's DMG), the [tb] mailing list as well as the TinderboxWiki . It is therefore incomplete regarding the global Tinderbox culture. It's main aim is to serve "on the go" (online), as well as a personal collection (this file). Tinderbox's author Mark Bernstein has also written a book, The Tinderbox Way , that discusses some of the design ideas encapsulated in Tinderbox as well as some practical examples as to usage.
If you're using the TBX file version of aTbRef, bear in mind nearly all of the caret (^) symbols will be written doubled in order the they don't get interpreted as export codes when outputting the HTML pages.
