The DocsProject maintains an [http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/example-tutorial/en_US/example-tutorial2.xml?root=docs&view=markup example tutorial]  that shows beginners how to get started using Doc<code></code>Book, using a simple "show and tell" format.  After you click the above link to [http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/example-tutorial/en_US/example-tutorial2.xml?root=docs&view=markup the tutorial] , choose "(As text)" at the top, and save the resulting page.  Then open the page in your favorite editor.  Most editors, such as <code>vi</code>, <code>Emacs</code>, and <code>gEdit</code>, will use "syntax highlighting" to make the document very easy to read.

== Complete Reference ==
 
"Doc<code></code>Book: The Definitive Guide" (often called "The Doc<code></code>Book Book" or "TDG"), available at the site, has a complete reference of all tags used in Doc<code></code>Book.  The Docs<code></code>Project currently uses version 4.4 of the Doc<code></code>Book DTD.  The reference in TDG shows you which tags belong to newer versions of the Doc<code></code>Book DTD, so you don't violate the specification when you are writing your documents.  You can download or read the book here:
