A patchy (but regularly updated) user guide is under development and
freely available as HTML from:

  http://datamining.togaware.com/

(follow the links provided from rattle.togaware.com)

In particular the starting point it:

  http://datamining.togaware.com/survivor/Data_Mining.html

There is a cluster tab under the Unsupervised paradigm, but not
documented yet.

I noticed some formatting problems with the HTML. Currently being fixed.
