You can browse all application help volumes registered on
your system without having to start each individual application—just
start Help Manager from the Front Panel.
At the top level, Help Manager groups help volumes into help
families. For example, the help family Common Desktop Environment
lists help volumes for the standard desktop applications. You can
browse and display any of the volumes listed.
To Open Help Manager
Click the Help Manager control in the Front
Panel (see Figure 3-2 “Help Manager control”).
A help window displays a list of help families with
online help. This is the top level of Help Manager.
Scroll the window to find the product group you are
interested in and click its title (underlined).
This lists the help volumes available for that product.
To open a particular help volume, click its title (underlined
text).
To return to the top level of Help Manager, click the
Top Level button.
