OBO-Edit: Help document OBO-Edit 2

There are many differences between OBO-Edit 1 and OBO-Edit 2. The OBO-Edit User Guide refers to version 1, and needs to be substantially revised before we can release OBO-Edit 2 to the public.

OBO-Edit users, we need your help! Please add your name to the section or sections to which you are willing to contribute. Feel free to add new sections to the list as well--this is definitely not a complete list. Don't worry about formatting or polishing your text. Just send whatever you have to Nomi, and she'll take care of making it pretty.

• Drag and drop layout customization
• Creating new layouts (and other general layout management) Jen: DONE
• The new search system
  • Term search Jen: DONE
  • Link search Jen: some screenshots sent in but still fairly confused about how this works. There is some good develop documentation on the link filter but I can't find it now. Still searching for it.
