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.
