I have finally submitted 3 files to this site which might be of use to anyone wanting help using WrpEdit.

These files are:

DEM-WrpEdit Tutorial - A tutorial explaining how to get your previously prepared DEM map into WrpEdit via Wilbur.

WrpEdit Tutorial - A tutorial explaining how to use WrpEdit.

WrpEdit Manual - An unofficial WrpEdit manual which explains the Menu Items, Tabs and Buttons.
In short, practically everything you might want to know about the WrpEdit interface.

These files are in a zipped html format and cover only the present version of WrpEdit (0.93).

I hope they are helpful.

If any newer version is released in the future I might update these files.

There are links in the DEM-WrpEdit Tutorial for finding various programs, including Wilbur.
