The printed manuals include a letter icon on the spine to help you quickly find the book you are looking for. The following icons are used:

GIndicates books that are for general users

SIndicates books that are for system and network administrators

PIndicates books that are for programmers

Although a book’s primary audience determines the documentation kit it is packaged in, some books help meet the needs of several audiences. For example, a general user can read the Programming Support Tools manual (packaged in the Developer’s Documentation Kit) to get advanced information about using commands such as grep or awk. The Security manual (packaged in the General User Documentation Kit) provides information for system administrators and programmers, as well as for general users. Keep this in mind when searching for information on specific topics.

The following sections describe the kits that comprise the Tru64 UNIX Documentation Kit and the documentation that each kit contains. This documentation is also provided on line, except where indicated.
