Hi,

I think a list of tips is very interesting and could be potentially useful
to gradually discover features of TeXmacs.

I'm doubtful about the idea of having tips as rewards in games. What is the
intended audience? Is it really worth it?

Also, to have this working one need to keep the tips secret (otherwise I do
not see them as "rewards") and this goes against a wider diffusion of the
available documentation.

Apple has a specific app to give tips abour their iOS. We could imagine that
a section of the Help could select a random tip and show it to the user,
maybe with some interactivity.

Best
Max
