The Version 5.1A release offers a new full-text search facility, called isearch, for finding information in Tru64 UNIX documentation on the Web and on local area networks, using any platform, including UNIX workstations, Macintosh computers, and PCs:

When accessing Tru64 UNIX documentation on the Web, you simply type a word or words in the search facility to find the places in the documentation that discuss the topic.

To use the search facility on an intranet, your system administrator must install the isearch software on your local server. Thereafter, users with access to that server can search the documentation in the same way as they would on the Web.

The required software is provided free on the Tru64 UNIX Documentation CD–ROM.

1.4.1The Documentation CD–ROM

The Documentation CD–ROM contains HTML and PDF versions of Tru64 UNIX documents. The complete set of operating system reference pages is available in HTML format. The CD–ROM provides links to these HTML and PDF documents.

You can use the Tru64 UNIX Documentation CD–ROM on a Tru64 UNIX system, as well as on a Windows PC or Macintosh — laptop or workstation — or on any other system that uses the ISO 9660 Level 1 CD–ROM standard.

In addition to the isearch facility described in Section 1.4, the Documentation CD–ROM contains a copy of the AltaVista Search CD–ROM software with a complete index of the HTML documents. The AltaVista software runs on an x86–based PC with Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 2000, or Windows NT Version 4.0.

The CD–ROM’s online Documentation Library is arranged in categories that generally follow the structure of the printed documentation kits. Each category is represented by a bulleted list, with the bullet for each book colored to indicate the documentation subkit to which the book belongs:

A blue bullet indicates documentation for general users.

A purple bullet indicates documentation for programmers.

A red bullet indicates documentation for system and network administrators.
