[Xerte] tutor

[Colin Gaunt]

Paul,

you may be doing what I tried to do when I first used Xerte a couple of
weeks ago. I was trying to create things in the interface that you are
presented with when you start up Xerte. Have you tried going to the
Templates menu and choosing Page Templates? Many types of quizzes are
there. You just need to populate the template.

As for a custom interface, that's hopefully my next step too.
