NAME
newbiedoc - Debian documentation for newbies by newbies. SYNOPSIS
newbiedoc newbiedoc file DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the newbiedoc command. The program newbiedoc is a small script that starts your favorite browser and displays the index page of the NewbieDOC documentation package. Optionally, you can specify the name of a specific file to open in the browser. newbiedoc can also be run directly from the Debian menu in the X Window System: Debian -> Help -> NewbieDOC. NewbieDOC documentation is in the form of HTML files which form a snapshot of the documentation currently being developed by the Debian NewbieDOC project. Visit the wiki at http://newbiedoc.berlios.de for the most recent versions, or if you wish to contribute to the project. The wiki is very easy to use. All Debian users are encouraged to author, edit or add comments to the articles. Each NewbieDOC item is either explicitly licensed by its author, or licensed globally under the GNU Free Documentation License. SEE ALSO
The NewbieDOC wiki is at http://newbiedoc.berlios.de AUTHOR
The upstream source for newbiedoc was written by Chris Lale <chrislale@untrammelled.co.uk>. This manual page was written by Chris Lale <chrislale@untrammelled.co.uk>, for the Debian project (but may be used by others). 27th September 2009 NEWBIEDOC(1)

NAME
dwww - access documentation via WWW SYNOPSIS
http://localhost/dwww/index.html dwww dwww program-name | package-name DESCRIPTION
A typical Linux system has documentation in many formats (manual pages, info files, READMEs, and so on). dwww makes it possible to access all of these via the same interface, a WWW browser. This makes it easier to use the documentation. To use dwww, load the URL given in the SYNOPSIS. If you have a web browser installed, you can also just run the dwww command which loads the URL. If BROWSER environment variable is set, dwww uses sensible-browser(1) to load the URL. Otherwise, dwww first tries to use browser specified by DWWW_BROWSER or DWWW_X11_BROWSER configuration variable (cf. dwww(7)), than will use sensible-browser(1) command. If optional argument program-name or package-name is specified, dwww will search all documentation related to given program or package. ENVIRONMENT
BROWSER Program used to load the above mentioned URL. FILES
/etc/dwww/dwww.conf Configuration file for dwww. SEE ALSO
dwww-find(8), dwww(7), sensible-browser(1). AUTHOR
Lars Wirzenius <liw@iki.fi>. Modified by Robert Luberda <robert@debian.org>. Bugs should be reported via the Debian Bug Tracking System at <URL:http://bugs.debian.org/>. dwww is licensed via the GNU General Public License. While it has been written for Debian, porting it to other systems is strongly encour- aged. dwww 1.11.1 February 15th, 2009 DWWW(1)
