Online Documentation

Panther’s documentation set is available online and included with the Panther distribution. The books can be viewed through the DynaTextTM browser on GUI platforms. To access the books, choose Help from within Prolifics or run DynaText’s read-only browser by clicking on the DynaText icon or typing dtext at the command line. For instructions on using DynaText, choose Help from within a DynaText browser window, or refer to the Using DynaText title in the Collection window.

Using DynaText DynaText is a full-featured online documentation system with support for:

`Text searches

After you open a title in the Collection window, the search panel is at the bottom of the DynaText window. When you type in a search string, DynaText lists the number of hits next to the title of each book, chapter and subsection.

Two wildcard characters are available: ? (a single character) and * (0 or more characters). DynaText performs an exact match on the search string; you will need to enter a wildcard if a word is used in both singular and plural contexts. For example:

server returns: server

server* returns: server, servers, server.lib, client/server

Common words can be on the search engine stop list or be one of the query keywords. Either condition produces a DynaText error. Enclose the search string in quotation marks and submit again. For example:

”use in select”
