Old documentation

The old documentation is available, but in a largely unformatted state:

Documentation:Big dump from drupal

(most of this should now have been ported to separate pages as per above)

The following have been merged in other pages, but they are left here if something got lost in the translation:

• MHBlenderTools: Download and installation : How to download and install the addons for Blender
• MHBlenderTools: MakeTarget : Description of the MakeTarget™ tool, to create custom morphings for MakeHuman.
• MHBlenderTools: MakeClothes : Description of the MakeClothes™ tool, to create custom clothes for MakeHuman.
