Documentation about imagepy HOT 2 OPEN

document is the a problem for a long time. I did not have much time (you known, sometimes document need more energy than coding), and my english is not very good.

I think there are 3 types of document. sorted by importance:

1. user menual
   for ImagePy is a bridge from developer to user. In this point, imagepy.doc folder, we can write some markdown file there, with the same structure and name with the plugins folder. Then it would be linked by the help button on parameter dialog. (if no parameter, or a tool, it is linked by right click), but I just put a demo in it now. (In fact I had tried to write a book, just like many imagej's book, and I has wroten many, but give up temporary)

2. the developer document
   I think the best way is writting demos. such as the demo plugin. may be some more demos is needed such as how to use ips.data. I think a good framework should be: a science programer can writting plugin easily, and need not know the framework well.

3. framework api document
   the doxygen document is a framework api, I am reconstructing ImagePy and split the ui as sciwx. When I comleted, we can rebuilt a doxygen.

In the end, may I invite you to imagepy's organization?

Your classification makes sense. I propose the following:

1. User manual
   You create the hierarchical document structure. Then we can start writing the documentation.
2. Developer documentation
   You know ImagePy the best, so you could write the documentation (as your time allows) and I can revise it. I am not a native English speaker but I think I could catch some spelling mistakes and also notice if something is not clear. During the revision, I can learn both about Python and the working of ImagePy.
3. API documentation
   Currently, I have no idea concerning this one.

may I invite you to imagepy's organization?

Yes, please. That would allow me to manage labels, milestones, etc. Since I am a beginner Python programmer, I will work on my own fork and contribute in form of pull requests. That way I cannot mess up the main ImagePy repository and you can edit my changes to conform to your needs.

This issue could be pinned on the main page to catch attention. Also, writing the documentation is a larger task, needing some planning. Hence, a project could be set up for this.
