  * Quick Start

Fillmore
    When you first run Fillmore, you will be presented with a window with three
    sections: Track Header on the left, Timeline in the middle and Library on 
    on the left.  The first task you will want to do is adjust the project 
    properties.

    From the File menu, select Settings.  This displays the Project Properties 
    dialog.  If you are recording music and want a metronome, select your time
    signature and tempo.  If you do not want a metronome, deselect the checkbox 
    "During record."
    
    Next, you will want to add audio.  You can add audio to your project in two 
    different ways.

    * Drag audio: Drag audio files from the file manager either to a track on
    the timeline or into the library.  You will only hear audio for clips that
    are on a track.

    * Record audio: Before launching Fillmore, plug a device for sound input
    into your computer.  In the Sound Preferences dialog, select this device
    as the default input device.  Launch Fillmore.  Press the big red 
    button to record.  To select which track is active for recording, select
    the desired track by clicking in the track header area next to the track.
    You can also click on the ruler to choose the time to start recording.

    Next, may want to position the audio on the timeline.  You can change the
    duration and location of the clips by dragging the clips.
    
    Once you have created your source material and are happy with it, you may
    want to export your project.  From the File menu, select Export.

Lombard
    When you first run Lombard, you will be presented with a window with three
