eTools and ETHelper

First Post
Hey there, guys and gals!

I recently dug up my copy of eTools and all of it's packages adding various content. I became dismayed (again) when I found out I can't create classes within eTools alone.

Upon some Google research, I found myself here, reading the few things I could find on either subject and I'm hoping someone can answer my questions.

Is there a tutorial for ETHelper general usage?

Is there a tutorial for creating classes for ETHelper? I find it a PITA trying to make a Swashbuckler or Knight or Scout IRL, so if I can figure out how to make classes, I'll totally upload whatever files to add this missing functionality. That is, if it's okay for me to do so.

Is there a complete list of packages that were made for eTools? I'm not sure if I'm missing any and I'd sure like to find some used copies if I am missing them. Wikipedia has an entry for eTools, but nothing for it's additions.

Also, is the source code for eTools available anywhere? I'm not much of a coder, but I'll be damed if I won't learn if I can dig through it and try and make some stuff work. I'm pretty sad about CMP and their history in general, and not just with eTools.

So any help regarding either tool would be appreciated. :D

Thanks!

After a problem with registering (the Register link sends you to the Login Screen and not the Register page), I found the forum you were talking about. I'll give it look over!

Thanks again, David!

EDIT: After looking over what they had available, it wasn't entirely useful. There is a link off to someone's VERY SIMPLE tutorial for Dynamic Class Features, but it looks like I'm going to have to undertake a seriously large and tedious task of making lengthy and detailed tutorials for each thing I've figured out since no one else seems like doing it. ;)
