+# A Tour of Hackety Hack
+
+## Welcome!
+
+### Why hello there!
+
+Welcome to the Hackety Hack tour!
+
+This whole side of the screen is the _Hackety Hack Tutor_. You can move forward
+through the lessons by clicking the _Next_ button:
+
+![You should click on the actual button, below! =)](/icon_button/arrow_right)
+
+Give it a shot!
+
+### Good Job!
+
+See? Super easy. Let's explore the rest of Hackety Hack.
+
+You can access the different functions of Hackety through the buttons on the
+left side of the screen. For example, you got here by clicking on 'Lessons.'
+There are 8 of those buttons, but since you're already on Lessons, let's talk
+about them first.
+
+Before we move on, just take a minute to look at the controls in the bar below.
+
+![](/icon_button/arrow_left)
+__back__: goes back one page
+
+![](/icon_button/arrow_right)
+__continue__: goes to the next page
+
+![](/icon_button/menu)
+__menu__: makes it easy to jump around to any lesson
+
+![](/icon_button/x)
+__close__: closes the tutor
+
+Don't forget! Press this to move to the next part:
+
+![](/icon_button/arrow_right)
+
+Have at it!
+
+## Lessons
+
+### A Lesson lesson.
+
+When you click on the Lesson button, it'll bring you to a list of all of the
+lessons that come with Hackety. For now, there's just a few. More Lessons will
+be added, and eventually, you'll be able to write and share your own Lessons
+with other Hackety Hackers.
+
+Lessons are just simple
+[Markdown](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax) files. Markdown
+looks just like writing normal text, but with some extra characters for text
+that's __bold__ or _italicized_, adding images, and stuff like that.
+
+## Home
+
+### Welcome Home
+
+This is the home screen, which shows you two very important things: your own
+programs, and the sample programs. Everyone starts off with one simple program:
+Hello, world! Check it out:
+
+    alert "Hello, world!"
+
+This is an actual Ruby program! You'll learn more about Ruby itself in the
+Beginning Ruby Lesson.
+
+### Samples
+
+If you click on the 'Samples' tab, you can see a bunch of sample programs that
+we've included for some inspiration. There's a few interesting animations, some
+games, and a few other things.
+
+That's all there really is to say about the homepage. Try opening the Editor.
+Here's its icon:
+
+![Not this one, silly! the one on the left!](static/tab-new.png)
+
+## Editor
+
+### Using the Editor
+
+This is where the magic happens: all of your programs will be created in the
+editor. Give it a shot: try typing this program in.
+
+    name = ask "What is your name?"
+    alert "Hello, " + name + "."
+
+After doing so, you can try running the program by pressing the 'Run' button in
+the lower right corner.
+
+### Saving and Uploading Programs
+
+To save your program, simply click the 'Save' button. It'll prompt you for a
+title, and then the program will appear on your Home screen.
+
+Once you've saved your program, two new buttons appear: 'Copy' and 'Upload.'
+Copy will duplicate your program, and then ask you for a new name. This  is
+really useful if you'd like to modify one of the example programs. Upload will
+send a copy of your program to the Hackety Hack website, where you can show it
+off to other Hackety Hackers. :) More about this when we talk about Preferences.
+
+## Help
+
+### Getting Help
+
+The next tab is the Help tab. It looks like this: 
+
+![Not this one, silly! the one on the left!](static/tab-help.png)
+
+Click it, and it'll open up a new window. Browse around and come back, I'll be
+here.
+
+### Okay, well... Shoes.
+
+That's a lot of help! Hackety Hack is built with Shoes, which is a toolkit for
+creating GUI programs in Ruby. All of the programs that you make in Hackety Hack
+are built with Shoes. That manual contains the entire Shoes reference, and
+there's a lot! Luckily, there's also a much shorter cheat sheet too...
+
+## Cheat
+
+### Short and sweet.
+
+Peek at the Cheat Sheet by clicking the icon like this:
+
+![Not this one, silly! the one on the left!](static/tab-cheat.png)
+
+The Cheat Sheet is much simpler. It just contains some helpful bits that you
+should find useful. A quick reference of often used bits. And a short sheet
+deserves a short explanation.
+
+## About
+
+### About Hackety
+
+The classic About box. These have been around basically since the beginning of
+time. It's just a fun little image that tells you what version of Hackety Hack
+you're using. It'll change with every release.
+
+![Not this one, silly! the one on the left!](static/tab-hand.png)
+
+Time for the last one...
+
+## Preferences
+
+### I do prefer...
+
+The Preferences icon is towards the bottom, and looks like this:
+
+![Not this one, silly! the one on the left!](static/tab-properties.png)
+
+This lets you adjust your preferences for Hackety Hack. Right now, there's only
+one preference: linking Hackety with your account on
+[hackety-hack.com](http://hackety-hack.com). You __do__ have one of those,
+right?
+
+If you link your account, you can upload your programs to the website and easily
+share them with others! More interesting features will be developed along these
+lines, so sign up, stick your info in, and prepare for all kinds of awesome.
+
+## Quit
+
+### Self-explanatory
+
+If you did click the quit icon, well, you wouldn't be here anymore. And that'd
+be unfortunate. So, don't click it until you're good and ready. When it's your
+time to go, it'll be there waiting for you.
+
+![Not this one, silly! the one on the left!](static/tab-quit.png)
+
+Come back soon!
+
+## ... and beyond!
+
+### What now?
+
+This concludes the Hackety Hack tour. Good job! Now you know everything that
+Hackety Hack can do. It's pretty simple!
+
+This isn't the only lesson that we have for you, though. Give the 'Basic
+Programming' lesson a shot to actually start learning how to make programs of
+your own.
+
+What are you waiting for? Get going!
