Older version of the Wings 3D manual are far out of date and filled with too much extraneous material.

Please help us improve this unofficial wiki manual, by cutting out the clutter and giving users the latest information. All the original material from the official manual will be eventually removed, and then the above copyright notice can be removed.

update: When trying to come up with descriptions of each feature in Wings I realized that the manual does a very good job of giving brief and concise explanations of features. So I think that part of the official manual should remain as the starting framework for the wiki. If anyone would like to help out, there is an icon in adobe acrobat that turns the mouse pointer into a cursor that you can highlight .pdf text to copy and paste.
