The KDE Help Center

The KDE Help Center provides a browser-like interface for accessing and displaying both KDE Help files and Linux Man and info files. You can start the Help Center by selecting its entry in the main menu (the life preserver), or by right-clicking the desktop and selecting the Help entry. The Help window is divided into two frames. The left frame of the Help screen holds two tabbed panels, one listing contents and the other providing a glossary. The right frame displays currently selected documents. A help tree on the contents panel lets you choose the kind of Help documents you want to access. Here you can choose manuals, Man pages, or info documents, even application manuals. The Help Center includes a detailed user manual, a FAQ, and KDE Web site access.

A navigation toolbar enables you to move through previously viewed documents. KDE Help documents use an HTML format with links you can click to access other documents. The Back and Forward commands move you through the list of previously viewed documents. The KDE Help system provides an effective search tool for searching for patterns in Help documents, including Man and info pages. Select the Find entry from the Edit menu to display a page where you can enter your pattern.
