GPE-WHAT(1) gpe-what GPE-WHAT(1) NAME
gpe-what - context-sensitive help for GPE. SYNOPSIS
gpe-what DESCRIPTION
gpe-what is a notification tray applet to control context sensitive help in the GPE Palmtop Environment. The GPE user interface is heavily icon-oriented, and it is not always completely obvious what the exact effect of each button is going to be. On a desktop system this would be dealt with by "mouse-over" tooltips, but these do not really work when your pointing device is a stylus. GPE-What provides an alternative mechanism for interactive help. GPE-what implements a modal help system for the GPE environment. It provides a "help" icon in the dock panel. When this icon is clicked, the system enters "help mode"; normal UI is suspended, and the next mouse click selects the widget for which help is wanted. The help text, if available, is displayed in a small pop-up bubble. This mechanism much much more useful for touchscreen use compared to the "mouse-over" tooltips known from a desktop PC.
