[wpkg-users] New WPKG user

Can anybody suggest the best place for a new WPKG user to find the best 
introductory support? There seems to be so many variables and options 
that is looks quite confusing. I have been able to make a basic batch 
script successfully run the loading of one application, then 
subsequently,  the upgrading to another version.

There is a real lack of instructional materials available--so I am  
confused on the next step--to attempt to create a script and other 
profiles and packages which will work.

I have been reading many of the list serv threads--however the material 
being discussed in the majority of these discussions is much too 
advanced for me at present.

Another question is that in the initial download of  WPKG there are 
three folders PROFILE, PACKAGES AND HOSTS along with the three 
individual files profiles, packages and hosts. Are the items in the 
folders simply example files? When I am actually running my 
scripts--shold I delete those files? I ask as from reading the debug log 
file--WPKG seems to be looking trough those folders as well.

Any help for a very new user--who doesn't have any scripting experience 
would be much appreciated.

Thank you in advance,
Joel
