document and demo

The demos should reside in:

  /usr/share/doc/dolfin-doc/demo

You can use a the MeshEditor:

  bit.ly/lfz8GB

to create a DOLFIN mesh from an external mesh. You might also want to look
into the dolfin-convert to check if there allready is written a converter for
your mesh.

The demo programs are actually in /usr/share/dolfin/demo.

I can locate the demo now thanks.
But
I check bit.ly/lfz8GB which directs me to
http://www.fenicsproject.org/doc/programmers-reference/cpp/mesh/MeshEditor.html
I wonder that whether I am at the right place because I only see some function declaration without enough explaining of the input parameters. Is there any place I can see some more detail information or some examples about how this class can be used? Where is the document of some other components of FENICS, like FIAT, ect.
Google gives me a page in FEMWIKI, http://www.femwiki.org/fenics-intro:fenics-introduction, which also looks like a old page. Thanks.
