Finding information

SCOhelp provides three general ways to find system information.



You can:

• Use Search. Located on both the toolbar
  
  and the Navigate menu, Search searches for any single word in a full text index of the current topic or a any combination of books or book sets in the Documentation Library.

• Use the current book's table of contents
  
  
  
  or index. You can open the current (the book containing the current topic) index and The table of contents from the toolbar or Navigate menu.

• Browse in the Documentation Library. If you are not sure about what information you need,
  
  or if you just want to browse the books available in the document set, use the Open Library button on the toolbar or, from the Navigate menu, select the Help Library.

  Browsing tools include:

  • Hyperlinks. Hyperlinks are cross-references to other relevant information in the documentation set.

  • the topic map. Use the topic map to orient yourself in the current book, examine other topics in the current chapter, or assemble the entire chapter for hardcopy printing.

  • the window history list. Select History from the Navigate menu or use the Backtrack and Forward toolbar buttons to revisit topics you opened during the current help session.
