Amarok on other Desktops and Operating Systems: Amarok on OSX - Handbook entry

completed by: Salma Sultana

mentors: Valorie Zimmerman

Thorough explanation of the Amarok build on OSX; both how to install it, and quirks in running Amarok on OSX.  Requires some wiki markup, as well as screenshots for illustrating the text. Installing Amarok on OSX is required of course.

http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/Amarok2_On_OS_X and http://amarok.kde.org/blog/archives/822-Amarok-2-on-OS-X,-now-with-more-sexy.html might be helpful to you.


http://userbase.kde.org/index.php?title=Amarok/Manual/AmarokOnOtherPlatforms/OSX exists, but needs to be written, marked up, and illustrated as a handbook page. Please look at some of the existing Handbook pages to get an idea for style and layout.

http://userbase.kde.org/Tasks_and_Tools will get you started. http://userbase.kde.org/Quick_Start is a bit more in-depth.

http://userbase.kde.org/EditMarkup is important, as are http://userbase.kde.org/Toolbox and http://userbase.kde.org/Typographical_Guidelines , along with proper spelling and grammar. I'll work with you on this.

Please come into #amarok and #rokymotion (Freenode IRC) with questions -- even if I'm not around, they are both full of helpful, knowledgeable people.
