Note: when you create a new publication type, the articles module will automatically use the templates user-display-[publicationtype].xt and user-summary-[publicationtype].xt. If those templates do not exist when you try to preview or display a new article, you'll get this warning :-) Please place your own templates in themes/yourtheme/modules/articles . The templates will get the extension .xt there.

Summary: Guidelines for everybody with the urge!
Body:
There are no hard and fast rules about writing for "C Vu", but the easier you make my job, the more chance you stand of seeing yourself in print! Basically, all submissions should be in straight ASCII format, unless you have an Atari ST, in which case STWRITER format would be preferred.
I see my role as editor as twofold, firstly, to massage your text into a suitable format -- cutting and adding bits as I go --, and secondly, correcting spelling and typographical errors (and, naturally, adding a few of my own!).
Submissions on paper, unless they are short (ie. one side of A4), are unlikely to be published. The ideal submission would consist of a brief outline (printed out, preferably) with the actual text on disk, or if you are into communications, transmitted to "CUG(UK) Online" (details on the back page).
If you wish to include diagrams, please get them printed out if possible. You could even go really lo-tech, and get a ruler and pencil out!
