S.u.S.E. online-support - introduction

The online-support is implemented in HTML. This formatting-language is beeing used by WorldWideWeb (3W) applications on the Internet.

So every 3W-Browser can be used to access the online-help. With the S.u.S.E. Linux distribution come the free browsers lynx (textoriented) and arena (X11).

The online-support is a hypertext-system. Words or groups of words are highlighted (arena: as buttons; lynx: inverted). When you choose these links (arena: by clicking with the mouse; lynx: by hitting return) you are shown another document, typically containing detailed information on the choosen topic.

Be patient when viewing manual-pages. They have to be formatted and converted into the HTML-format. This may take some seconds.

Essential commands:

Textoriented - (lynx)
- Moving in the text: "Cursor-up" and "Cursor-down"
- Following a link: "Return"
- Back to the previous document: "Cursor-left"
X11 - (arena)
- Moving in the text: "Cursor-up", "Cursor-down", "Page-up", "Page-down", Scrollbar
- Following a link: "Click on the box"
- Back to the previous document: "Back"-button
