Purpose
The goal of this category is to record info on all fire modeling and related software we deal with.
Format of software pages
Each page should have at least the following components:
- The line {{software}} at the top to generate the header.
- Lead briefly stating the purpose and history of the software
- Distribution section, with the download info or contact point
- File format section, important for connecting to other software
- Documentation section with links if available
- Support section if available
- Publications section with download links to fulltext whenever possible
- Contributors section if they are not listed in the lead
- The line [[Category:Software]] at the bottom to include the page automatically in the List of software.
You can copy a empty page with all these components (and few more) from the Template for creating software pages. Jmandel 19:18, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
