The install instructions from the Nvu site are very sparse. The tar.gz file
only contains a directory subdirectorys and the executables. There are no
docs,Readme or install files.
When it runs it looks like a useful WYSIWYG html application, but I don't
consider it really ready for prime time. There is no help documentation.
I found it a PITA to install and get running. YMMV.
Have fun.
