I've looked over this, here are some small remarks:
- - Try to avoid abbreviations like "it's" and "You'll", use "it is" and
"you will" instead.
- - "Say" should be replaced with "enter" or "type" (several occurances)
Technically this looks good.
You can find a HOWTO template here:

Please send your work to ####@####.#### when you feel it is ready and
I will assign you a reviewer.
Tille.
