General User Documentation

This chapter describes the general user documentation, which provides information for all users of the Tru64 UNIX operating system. The books in this category provide introductory information for people who are unfamiliar with Tru64 UNIX, as well as advanced information for the experienced user. Each document is individually described.

Printed books can be purchased from Compaq in the documentation kits described in Section 1.5.

Except for a few externally published manuals, the documentation described here was produced by Compaq writers working closely with the developers of the Tru64 UNIX operating system.

Books identified as revised, were updated with the Version 5.1A release.

2.1 Printed and Online Documentation

The documentation described in this section is provided on the Tru64 UNIX Documentation CD–ROM and in the optional printed documentation kits. For more information on the printed documentation set, see Section 1.5.

2.1.1CDE Companion

The CDE Companion provides an introduction to Compaq’s implementation of the Common Desktop Environment (CDE), an easy method of interacting with the Tru64 UNIX operating system.

For users migrating from DECwindows Motif to CDE, this book serves as an introduction to the new environment, providing information on how to use CDE to complete tasks previously done by using DECwindows.

For users who are new to desktop environments, this book provides quick-start information on topics such as logging into the system, navigating the system, and using and managing the desktop and applications.

This book can be used in conjunction with the Common Desktop Environment: User’s Guide.
