-<chapter><title>What is Opie?</title>
-<para>
-Opie is a GUI (Graphical User Interface) for the Linux operating system (and
-might work on other OSes as well). It was originally designed for handheld
-computers (such as the Compaq/HP iPAQ and the Sharp Zaurus), but could
-probably function well in other environments requiring a light GUI, such as an
-old laptop, or an internet kiosk. It is based upon QT/Embedded from Trolltech,
-which is in turn a graphical environment designed for embedded applications,
-based upon the QT toolkit.
-</para>
-<para>
-Opie has been designed for devices with small screens, and a touchscreen input
-device (ie, only one mouse click, and no constant mouse position), as well as
-designed to fit in a relatively small amount of storage space (about 5 megabytes
-for the base libraries and the launcher).
-</para>
-</chapter>
-<chapter><title>Installation</title>
-<section><title>iPAQ</title>
-<para>
-To install opie on an iPAQ, you will need a fresh Familiar installation (ie,
-install Familiar, and stop before you do ipkg install task-complete or ipkg
-install task-x), go to http://familiar.handhelds.org to get the latest version,
-and to get installation instructions (again, stop after the initial boot and do
-not install X, as it is not necessary, and will only take up space).
-</para>
-
-<note>
-<para>
-If you had qpe/qtopia installed previously,
-<emphasis>completely</emphasis> remove it, and remove the src line for it from
-your /etc/ipkg.conf file before attempting to install opie.
-</para>
-</note>
-<para>
-Once you have Familiar installed, set up a network connection between your iPAQ
-and the ouside world (again, see the Familiar site for instructions on this),
-and then run this command:
-<informalexample>
-<literallayout>
- echo src opie "http://131.152.105.154/feeds/ipaq/unstable/" \
- >> /etc/ipkg.conf
-</literallayout>
-</informalexample>
-then, run:
-<informalexample>
-<literallayout>
- ipkg update && ipkg install task-opie
-</literallayout>
-</informalexample>
-If you have a 3100 or 3800 series iPAQ, run:
-<informalexample>
-<literallayout>
- ipkg install qt-embedded-rotation
-</literallayout>
-</informalexample>
-finally, start Opie with:
-<informalexample>
-<literallayout>
- /etc/init.d/opie start
-</literallayout>
-</informalexample>
-</para>
-
-<para>
-Opie should now be running (if you should have to reboot, which is rare, Opie
-will start automatically). From here, you can use either the "Software"
-application in the Settings tab, or run ipkg from the command line to install
-other Opie apps. Check out the various task-opie-* ipkgs to install various sets
-of apps at once (you can always uninstall individual apps individually). You
-will probably want to install opie-embeddedkonsole first, so you have access to
-the command line in Opie.
-</para>
-</section>
-
-<section><title>Zaurus</title>
-<para>
-To completely install Opie on the Zaurus, you will have to install OpenZaurus,
-which includes Opie. However, individual Opie applications will work fine on the
-default Zaurus rom. Do not install Opie's launcher on a default Zaurus ROM
-though.
-</para>
-</section>
-</chapter>
-
-<chapter><title>Using Opie</title>
-<para>
-Now that Opie is installed and running, it's time to start using it. When you
-first start Opie, you will see the "Launcher" from which you can start all of
-your Applications, and the "Taskbar" along the bottom, where you can see all
-the running applications, select an input method, and interact with the
-installed "applets".
-</para>
-
-<section><title>Getting Around</title>
-<para>
-Getting around in Opie is very easy, you simply click your stylus on whatever
-icon or button you want to click on. The main difference between using the
-stylus and using a mouse is that you cannot right click with a stylus, so things
-that require a right click are kept to a minimum. However, it is sometimes
-necessary to right click, and this is implemented with a "press and hold".
-Any time you want to do something that you think would require a right click on
-a normal pc, try pressing the stylus down and holding it still for a few
-seconds. This usually opens up a context sensative menu, much like a right
-click usually does on a desktop interface.
-</para>
-</section>
-
-<section><title>Launcher</title>
-<para>
-The Launcher behaves like the "desktop" on most PC GUIs. When no applications
-are running or visible, you will have access to the Launcher. You can also map
-a hardware key to bring the Launcher to the top without closing any of the
-running applications (this is similar to "minimising" all the applications
-that are running).
-</para>
-<para>
-Along the top of the Launcher you will see a list of tabs which function as
-categories for your applications. You can click on the tab for the category you
-want to view, and then click on the icon for the application that you wish to
-launch. By default, there will be an Applications tab and a Settings tab (if
-you install any games, they will appear in the Games tab). When new
-applications are installed, they will usually appear in one of these three tabs,
-or in a tab of their own. To add or delete tabs or to move applications between
-the tabs, you can use the Tab Manager application, or you can edit them by hand,
-by changing the directories in /opt/QtPalmtop/apps.
-</para>
-<para>
-There is also a tab to the far right called the "Documents" tab, which allows
-you to quickly open your most often used documents. You can click on a document
-to open it up in the proper application. For help on adding files to the
-Documents tab see the <xref linkend="adddoc">.
-</para>
-</section>
-
-<section><title>Taskbar</title>
-<para>
-Opie has a "Taskbar" that always runs along the bottom of the screen in Opie,
-except for a few "fullscreen" applications that cover it up. The Taskbar is
-what lets you select which input method you would like to use, shows what
-applications are running, and is also where the "applets" draw their icons.
-On the left of the Taskbar is an "O" button that opens a menu which has an
-entry for every tab in the Launcher, allowing you to star an applications
-without going back to the Launcher, or quiting the application that you are
-running. On the right hand side of the Taskbar, you will probably see a clock
-(unless you installed task-opie-minimal), which is actually just another applet
-that draws the time instead of an icon.
-</para>
-<para>
-When an application is run, it adds its icon to the Taskbar, starting from the
-right side of the input method icon, with new application's icons appearing to
-the right. If you click on the icon for an application, it will be brought to
-the screen, allowing you to interact with it.
-</para>
-<para>
-To the right of the "O" menu you will see an icon for the currently selected
-input method. Clicking this will bring up the input method, allowing you to
-type into the currently running application. To the right of the input method
-icon is a small arrow pointing up, which will open a menu of all the currently
-installed input methods when clicked. When you select one of these, it will
-become the current input method, with its icon replacing the previous one.
-</para>
-</section>
-
-<section><title>Dialogs</title>
-<para>
-In Opie, dialogs, as well as some applications, have a button labeled "Ok" on
-the right side of the window title bar, in addition to the normal "x". For
-dialogs, the "Ok" button will apply your changes and close the window, while
-the "x" will cancel them before closing the window (for people used to most
-desktop GUI's the "Ok" and "x" behave like the "Ok" and "Cancel" buttons
-you would normally see in the bottom right of the dialog window).
-</para>
-<para>
-For applications that have an "Ok" button as well as the "x" button that all
-applications have, the "Ok" button will usually save the current file and then
-close the application, while the "x" button will close the application without
-saving.
-</para>
-</section>
-</chapter>
-
-<chapter><title>Upgrading</title>
-<para>
-First, you should shutdown Opie from the "Shutdown" app in the Settings tab.
-Normally, simply running
-<informalexample>
-<literallayout>
- ipkg update && ipkg upgrade
-</literallayout>
-</informalexample>
-will upgrade Opie. However, if you currently have a version with the 1.5.0
-version number, you will have to upgrade it differently, because Opie now uses a
-different version number (the 1.5.0 was Qtopia's version number, we now use our
-own). To upgrade from one of these older versions, run:
-<informalexample>
-<literallayout>
- ipkg update
- ipkg install opie-update
-</literallayout>
-</informalexample>
-Opie should then be upgraded.

-<chapter><title>Contacts</title>
-<para>
-Contacts is a way to keep track of all the people you know, and how to contact
-them. as well as other information, such as their birthday, the company they
-work for, etc.
-<para>
-
-<section><title>Adding Contacts</title>
-<para>
-To Add a user, go to
-<GUImenu>Contact</GUImenu>&arrow;<GUIMenuItem>Add</GUIMenuItem>,
-or click the add icon in the toolbar (looks like a blank piece of paper).
-First, you need to give the person a name. You can do this by either entering
-their name in the name field, or by pressing "Full Name...", which will open
-up a new dialog that lets you enter each part of their name individually. Three
-of the entry fields have pulldown menus instead of labels that let you set which
-parameter these input fields control. The File As field lets you control how
-their name is displayed in the main view, use the pulldown arrow to select from
-some common ways of ordering their first and last names, or type in a custom
-one. You can also select a category for the user to be filed under, and clicking
-the button labeled "..." lets you edit the available catagories (these are
-convinient for displaying just the contacts you want when you have a lot of
-them).
-</para>
-<para>
-The address tab lets you edit the contact's buisness and home addresses (select
-which one you want to change from the pulldown menu at the top). The bottom
-field behaves just like the three custom fields in the "General" tab (and if
-you select the same thing from the pulldown list, it will modify the same
-parameter).
-</para>
-<para>
-The Details tab is used for miscelaneous things like the person's position, the
-name of their spouse, etc.
-</para>
-<para>
-When you are done, click "Ok" in the top right of the screen (you can always
-edit their profile later), click the "x" to cancel, and not add the contact.
-</para>
-</section>
-<section><title>Editing Contacts</title>
-<para>
-To edit the contacts, select the person you want to edit, anc click the pencil
-icon, or go to <GUIMenu>Contact</GUIMenu>&arrow;<GUIMenuItem>Edit</GUIMenuItem>,
-and it will open up the same dialog used to add a user, except their information
-that is already entered will already be filled in. To finalise the changes,
-click "Ok", or to cancel them, click "x".
-</para>
-</section>
-
-<section><title>Deleting Contacts</title>
-<para>
-To delete a contact, select the person from the list of contacts, and click the
-trash can icon, or go to <GUIMenu>Contact</GUIMenu>
-&arrow;<GUIMenuItem>Delete</GUIMenuItem>. A dialog will pop up asking if you
-want to actually delete that contact, click yes to delete it, no will cancel.
-</para>
-</section>
-
-<section><title>Editing Contacts</title>
-<para>
-To find a specific person, click the find icon (green magnifying glass), or go
-to <GUIMenu>Contact</GUIMenu>&arrow;<GUIMenuItem>Find</GUIMenuItem>. A dialog
-will pop up, and in the "Find what" input, enter the string you want to search
-for. You can also select if you want the search to be case sensative, and if you
-want it to search backwards from the currently selected user. The Category drop
-down menu lets you search only a specific category ("All" to search all of
-them). When you click "Find", it will start search for the string in all the
-fields in all the contacts. When it finds a match, it will highlight the user in
-the main view. You can use this to search for (as an example) who a certain
-phone number belongs to, by entering the phone number in the "find what" field,
-and clicking "Find".
-</para>
-</section>
-
-<section><title>Viewing Contacts</title>
-<para>
-To view only the contacts in a certain category, go to the View menu, and check
-the categories you want to view.
-</para>
-<para>
-The list of letters on the bottom of the window lets you look at only the
-contacts who's names begin with that letter. These work much like entering text
-on a mobile phone. For example, to view all the contacts whos name starts with
-"B", press the "ABC" group twice (since "B" is the second letter in that
-group). To go back to displaying all of the letters, click it two more times
-(pressing it four times brings you back to all the letters, so you pressed it 2
-times to get to "B" and 2 more times to get back to all letters. 2+2=4).
-</para>
-</section>
-
-<section><title>Personal Details</title>
-<para>
-Change your personal details by going to <GUIMenu>Contact </GUIMenu>
-<GUIMenuItem>My Personal Details</GUIMenuItem>. This is used in today to
-display who the device belongs to, as well as other apps.
-</para>
-</section>
-</chapter>
-
-<chapter><title>Calendar</title>
-<para>
-The Calendar is a way to keep track of all your appointments, birthdays,
-meetings, or any other event that you would put in a calendar.
-</para>
-
-<section><title>Navigation</title>
-<para>
-Navigation in the Calendar is simple. Along the top are five different buttons
-that allow you to set the type of view, which correspond to the five items in
-the "View" menu. Each one (except for "Today") changes the amount of time
-shown on the screen. "Day" shows one day, "Week" one week, etc. Today is the
-same as Day, except that it automatically sets the view to the current day.
-</para>
-<section><title>The Day view</title>
-<para>
-The day view shows your day divided up into blocks representing each hour. At
-the top is the navigation bar, wher you will see a row of buttons, which
-represent the days of the current week, and on the left and right sides of the
-navigation bar are arrows, which allow you to move one day in that direction. If
-you are on the last day of the week, pressing the arrow will bring you into the
-first day of the next week (or vice-versa if you are going backwards). There is
-also a button that lists the current day, which you can press to select a day to
-view from a calendar dialog.
-</para>
-<para>
-In the main view, there is a collumn of buttons, each of which represents one
-hour. If you select one, any new appointments will automatically default to
-begining at that time and ending an hour later (which you can, of course, change
-when you create the appointment).
-</para>
-<para>
-Clicking on an appointment will open a menu that lets you edit, delete or beam
-the appointment. Beam will beam the appointment to any device supporting the
-Obex protocol (PalmOS based devices, cellphones, etc). libopieobex must be
-installed to use this feature.
-</para>
-</section>
-
-<section><title>The Week View</title>
-<para>
-The week view allows you to see your week divided up into columns, representing
-each day of the week, and rows, representing each hour of the day. In the
-navigation bar at the top, there are two scroll boxes, the one on the left shows
-the current year, and the one to the right shows which week it is of that year.
-To the right of both of those is a label which shows the date range for the
-currently selected week.
-</para>
-<para>
-In the main view, you see the week divided up into rows and collumns
-representing the days of the week, and hours of the day. In each cell, you will
-see a blue square which represents an appointment, which you can press to see
-details of the appointment. If you press anywhere in the free space, you will go
-to the day of the column that you clicked in.
-</para>
-</section>
-
-<section><title>The Week List View</title>
-<para>
-The week list view shows you all the appointments that you have that week
-without graphically representing how long they are or showing the free time
-between them. This is convinient if you need to see a list of all your
-appointments, but do not need to see how your time is mapped out. The navigation
-bar has an arrow button on either side, allowing you to move to the next or
-previous week, as well as a button which gives the current week number for that
-year. Pressing the week number button will bring up a calendar dialog, which
-allows you to select the week you are viewing. Selecting a day from the calendar
-will bring you to the week that day is in. To the right of that is a button with
-a "2" in it. When this is depressed, the main view will show two weeks at a
-time, instead of one. The last item is a label which shows the range of dates
-for the currently selected week.
-</para>
-<para>
-The main view is comprised of several rows, each of which represents a day of
-the week. If you have an appointment on that day, the date will be red,
-otherwise it will be black (the current day is blue). Clicking on the date
-itself will bring you to the day view for that day. Under each day is a list of
-all the appointments for that day, as well as their start times. If you click on
-an appointment, you will go to an edit dialog for that appointment, which lets
-you view its details. Next to each day heading is a "+" sign, clicking it will
-create a new appointment for that day.
-</para>
-</section>
-
-<section><title>The Month View</title>
-<para>
-The month view looks like a normal monthly calendar, allowing you to see on what
-days of the month you have appointments. In the navigation bar, there are two
-pairs of arrows. The pair with an arrow and a vertical line will take you to the
-first or last month of the currently selected year, while the normal arrow
-buttons will take you to the next or previous month. There is a dropdown menu
-which allows you to select the month, and a entry field which allows you to
-select the year (press the up or down arrows, or enter in your own year).
-</para>
-<para>
-The main view is divided up into a grid, where the columns are the days of the
-week, and the rows are the weeks (just like an ordinary calendar). The currently
-selected day has a bold box drawn around it, and if the day has an appointment,
-there will be a small blue square in the bottom right corner of it (that square
-will have a smaller white square if it is a recurring appointment). If the
-appointment is an all day event, it will be drawn as a green dot instead. When
-you click on the sqaure of a day, you will be taken to the day view for that
-day.
-</para>
-</section>
-</section>
-
-<section><title>Adding Appointments</title>
-<para>
-To add an appointment, click on the add appointment button in the toolbar at the
-top of the window (an image of a blank page), and a dialog will open up,
-allowing you to enter information about the appointment (depending on the
-current view, and what you may have selected, there may be certain default
-settings).
-</para>
-<para>
-At the top of the window is the description field, where you can enter in a
-short description of the appointment, or select a common one from the dropdown
-list. The location field allows you to do the same. The category dropdown allows
-you to assign the appointment to a category, which you can use later to view
-only some of your appointments. The button labeled "..." to the right of that
-will open up a dialog where you can add, delete, or edit certain categories.
-</para>
-<para>
-To enter a start and end time, select the date for each from the dropdown menu,
-and then you can either manually enter a time, or you can use the three rows of
-numbers to more quickly enter it in. To use the fast input method, first click
-in the text entry field of the time you want to edit, then you need to select
-the hour. The first two rows are the hours, click whichever one you want. The
-third row of numbers are the minutes, in units of five. When you select the
-minutes field for the start time, it will automatically set the minutes field
-for the end time to the same thing, but you can change this by selecting the end
-field and giving it its own minutes field. Because of this, it is fastest to set
-the start time first and then the end time. There is also an "all day"
-checkbox, which will make the appointment take up the entire day.
-</para>
-<para>
-Underneath this you can set the timezone of the appointment from the dropdown
-list. To change the available timezones, click the world icon, and it will open
-the City Time application. Refer to its documentation for changing the
-timezones. If you want to have an alarm go off, check the "alarm" checkbox,
-and then set the number of minutes before the appointment that you want the
-alarm to sound. If you set the dropdown list next to that to "silent" you will
-only be given a visual alarm, wheras if you set the alarm to "Loud", there
-will be an alarm sound as well. Note: opie-alarm must be installed for alarms to
-work.
-</para>
-<para>
-To set whether the appointment repeats, click the "Repeat" button and a new
-dialog will open up. At the top is a row of buttons, which lets you set how
-often the appointment repeats. Selecting one of these buttons will change the
-interface below, to represent the available options for that type of repetition
-(selecting "None" will turn off repetition if you turned it on and no longer
-want it). When you are done, click "ok" in the upper right to select that type
-of repetition, or "x" to set it back to what it was (none if it is a new
-appointment).
-</para>
-<para>
-Finally, you can add notes to the appointment by clicking the "Notes..."
-button which will open a dialog with a text entry field for adding notes. Press
-"ok" to accept the changes to the notes, "x" to cancel.
-</para>
-<para>
-When you are done setting up the appointment, click "ok" in the top right of
-the window, or "x" to cancel adding the appointment.
-</para>
-</section>
-<section><title>Editing Appointments</title>
-<para>
-How you start editing an appointment varies depending on what view you are in,
-but they will all open the same dialog. The dialog is the same as the Add
-Appointment dialog, except that the fields will already be filled in with the
-information that the appointment contains. Clicking "ok" will keep your
-changes, "x" will revert them to what they were before you edited them.
-</para>
-</section>
-
-<section><title>Finding Appointments</title>
-<para>
-To find a specific appointment, click the find button in the toolbar (small
-green magnifying glass) and it will open a find dialog. Here you can enter the
-text you want to search for, as well as the category you want to search for, as
-well as the start date, and whether you want the search to be case sensitive.
-Click "Find" to find the next appointment that matches your criteria.
-</para>
-</section>
-</chapter>
-
-<chapter><title>Todo</title>
-<para>
-Todo is designed for storing information about things you need to do, but which
-arent going to happen at a specific time, like "change the oil" or "mow the
-lawn". You can also give todo items a deadline, if they have to be completed by
-a certain time.
-</para>
-
-<section><title>Adding Tasks</title>
-<para>
-Go to <GUIMenu>Data</GUIMenu>&arrow;<GUIMenuItem>New Task<GUIMenuItem>, or click
-on the new task icon (blank page). The priority drop down menu lets you select
-the priority of the task. The lower the number, the more important it is. The
-categories behave in much the same way that they do in Calendar, you can select
-the category from the drop down menu, or you can click the "..." button to add,
-delete, or edit categories. To give the task a due date, check the "Due"
-checkbox, and then click the button next to it (it should contain the current
-date). That will open a calendar from which you can select the due date. The
-"Completed" check box is the same as the checkbox next to each item in the main
-view. The "Summary" field is for a short summary that will be visible in the
-main view, as well as in the Today application. The down arrow next to it will
-copy the text in the "Summary" field into the large text field below it, which
-is used for a more detailed description of the task. Click "ok" in the upper
-right to add the new task, or "x" to close the window without adding the new
-task.
-</para>
-</section>
-<section><title>Editing Tasks</title>
-<para>
-To edit a task, you can select it, and then go to
-<GUIMenu>Data</GUIMenu>&arrow;<GUIMenuItem>Edit
-Task</GUIMenuItem>, or click the edit task icon (an image of a pencil). The same
-dialog should apear as if you were adding a task, but the information for that
-task should already be filled in. You can change any of it you want to, and then
-click "ok" in the top right corner to save the changes, or "x" to go back to
-the way it was.
-</para>
-</section>
-
-<section><title>Deleting Tasks</title>
-<para>
-To delete a task, first select it, and then either select
-<GUIMenu>Data</GUIMenu>&arrow;
-<GUIMenuItem>Delete...</GUIMenuItem> or press the Delete icon (an image of
-a trash can). A dialog should pop up, asking if you want to delete the task,
-click yes to delete it, or no to cancel.
-</para>
-</section>
-<section><title>Finding Tasks</title>
-<para>
-To find a task, either go to
-<GUIMenu>Options</GUIMenu>&arrow;<GUIMenuItem>Find</GUIMenuItem>
-, or click the find icon (an image of a green magnifying glass), and a dialog
-should pop up. Enter the text you want to search for in the description, and
-select the category that you want it to search through (this will speed the
-search up, if you know what category it is in). You can also select "case
-sensative" which makes the search pay attention to the case of what you type (so
-if you look for "mow lawn", it won't find a task called "Mow lawn"). "Search
-Backwards" will search backwards from the currently selected task. Click "Find"
-to initiate the search, when it finds a task that matches the string, it will
-select it. If you click Find again, it will find the next one in the list (or
-the previous one, if "Search backwards" is selected).

-<para>
-The file manager allows easy access to your file system, letting you browse,
-copy, move, delete and link files. You can also use it to open the file in an
-application based upon the file type, or add the file to your "Documents" tab,
-as well as several other filesystem related things.

-<section><title>Navigating</title>
-<para>
-To enter a directory, simply press its icon or name in the main view. There are
-also two buttons in the toolbar which help with navigation. The back arrow will
-take you back to the directory you were previously looking at, while the up
-arrow will take you up one level in the directory structure (so, if you are in
-/usr/bin, it will take you to /usr, regardless of where you were before). The
-"Dir" menu shows the current path, with each directory as a menu item. So, if
-you are in /opt/QtPalmtop/bin there will be four entries: /, opt, QtPalmtop, and
-bin. Selecting one of these will take you immediately to that directory.
-</para>

-<para>
-EmbeddedKonsole is Opie's terminal emulator. From here you can do pretty much
-anything (since Linux is actually a command line based OS by itself). I will
-not go into much detail on using the linux command line, as that is covered in
-many other places (http://www.tldp.org is a good place to start, or read
-O'Reilly's <citation>Running Linux</citation> for a comprehensive look at Linux
-for the beginner). I will, however, give a quick overview of using a Linux
-shell.
-</para>
-
-<section><title>Using Embedded Konsole</title>
-<para>
-Along the top of the window is a row of menus and icons. The "Font" menu lets
-you select the font size that you want the console to use, while the Options
-menu lets you select various options. Below this row of menus and icons is a
-pulldown list with various common commands in it.
-</para>
-
-<section><title>Options Menu</title>
-<para>
-The first submenu in the options menu is the "Command List" menu, which lets
-you edit or hide the command list pulldown. The "Tabs on top" or "Tabs on
-bottom" (depending on which is currently enabled) allows you to select where
-the tabs representing multiple terminal sessions are drawn. The "Colors"
-submenu lets you select from a color scheme, or make your own, and the "Scroll
-Bar" submenu lets you select where or if the scroll bar is drawn.
-</para>
-</section>
-<section><title>Icons</title>
-<para>
-The row of icons to the right of the menus allows you to type common keystrokes
-without having an input method visible, as well as some other things.
-</para>
-<para>
-The icon all the way on the left will open a new terminal session in a new tab,
-while the icon all the way on the right will paste text from the clipboard into
-the terminal.

-<section><title>What is a Shell</title>
-<para>
-A shell is a program that accepts input from a user, and runs commands. Each
-"command" in the shell is actually a separate program (unless you are using a
-shell like BusyBox, which makes some of the more common commands part of its own
-program in order to save space). Shells can actually be very powerful, and many
-of them allow you to write something called "shell scripts" which are just a
-sequence of commands, sometimes with some flow control statements, saved to a
-file and run each time the script is run. For the most part, the average user
-does not need to know about any of this, though. If you are running Opie on the
-Familiar distribution, it is advisable to install the bash shell (ipkg install
-bash) because it offers things like tab completion, use of the backspace key,
-and a command history, as well as offering a more advanced scripting languauge
-than most other shells.
-</para>
-</section>
-
-<section><title>Running Programs</title>
-<para>
-To run a program or a command (remember, a command is just another program), you
-simply type the name of the program and hit "Return" (in Linux, program names
-do not have a special suffix like they do in windows, in fact the "."
-character has no special meaning unless it is at the begining of a filename, in
-which case it makes the file "hidden"). When you type a program name and hit
-"Return" the shell looks in a special list of directories called your
-"path", and if it cannot find it in any of those directories, it stops looking
-and tells you it could not find them. If you want to run a program that is not
-in your path, you must specify an absolute or relative path to that program.
-For instance, to run a program that is in the directory you are currently in,
-you would type <literal>./program</literal> ("./" is a special directory that
-is explained below), or to run a program in /home/username/ you would call
-<literal>/home/username/program</literal>.
-</para>
-<para>
-Most programs take "arguments" when run from the command line. An argument is
-a string that contains no spaces that changes how the program behaves (a text
-editor, for instance, might take a single argument, which would be the name of
-the file you wish to edit). Usually, you can use the arguments "-h" or
-"--help" to get a list of the common arguments that that program takes, along
-with a short usage description, and a short description of what each argument
-does.
-</para>
-</section>
-
-<section><title>Basic Navigation</title>
-<para>
-The command that you will use most often in the shell is probably the "cd"
-command, which stands for "change directory." With this command, you can move
-around in the file system, by issuing the command like this: <userinput>cd
-<replaceable>[new directory]</replaceable></userinput>, where <replaceable>[new
-directory]</replaceable> is the directory you want to move to.
-This directory name does not have to include the entire directory structure, but
-can be "relative" which means it assumes you are talking about directories
-relative to the directory you are in. For example, if you are in a directory
-called /home/username and you want to move to the directory
-/home/username/other/dir you could simply type <userinput>cd
-other/dir</userinput> and you would end up in /home/username/other/dir. You can
-also specify a full, or "absolute" path, by specifying the entire path name
-starting with / ( / is a special directory called the "root" directory, and does
-not have a "parent" directory, which means that it is not in any other
-directory). There are also two special directories called "./" and "../".
-The "./" directory is the current directory you are in, and you will probably
-never use this in conjunction with the cd command (why would you want to move to
-the directory you are already in?). The "../" directory represents the parent
-directory of the directory you are currently in, so if you are in
-/home/username, ../ is the same as /home. You can string several ../'s
-together, so if you are in /home/username/dir/ ../../ represents /home. There
-is one other special directory, called "~/" that points to your home
-directory (usually /home/username or /root for the root user).
-</para>
-</section>
-
-<section><title>Moving Files</title>
-<para>
-To move files around, you need to use the "cp" (copy) and "mv" (move)
-commands. Both of these are run the same way: <userinput>command originalfile
-newfile</userinput>. The only difference is that cp creates a new file without
-touching the old one, while mv deletes the original file. The two path names
-can be either absolute or relative. If you only specify a directory for the
-destination, and no filename, it will use the filename for the original file.
-</para>
-</section>
-
-<section><title>Deleting Files</title>
-<para>
-To delete a file, run the "rm" command, and to delete a directory, run the
-"rmdir" command, each of them take the file to be removed as their only
-argument. The rmdir command requires the directory to be empty, so if you want
-to delete a directory that is not empty, along with all its contents, run
-<userinput>rm -r dir</userinput>.
-</para>
-</section>
-
-<section><title>Linking Files</title>
-<para>
-In Linux, you can have a special file called a "symbolic link" that acts just
-like a copy of another file, except it takes up less space. This is convinient
-if two applications are looking for the same file in two separate places,
-because the file can be in both places at once, without taking up any extra
-space, and any change to one is automatically applied to the other (really,
-there is only one file, the link is just a file pointing to the original file).
-This is also useful for naming applications independant of their version number.
- For instance, you could have a link called "application" that points to
-"application1.0". To create a link, use the following command:
-<userinput>ln -s originalfile link</userinput>.

-<para>
-The "Software" application, also called oipkg, is what is used to install and
-remove software. It is actually a frontend to the command line program "ipkg"
-so most things you can do with oipkg you can also do with ipkg. Oipkg can
-install things either remotely from a web server (called a "feed") or it can
-install an ipkg package file that resides on the local filesystem.
-</para>
-<important>
-<para>
-There is a bug in oipkg that prevents it from installing packages
-properly. There is, however, a workaround for it. Simply run oipkg from
-Embedded Konsole to avoid the bug.
-</para>
-</important>
-
-<section><title>Installing Software</title>
-<para>
-To install software, first select "Opie" from the "Section" pulldown menu,
-the press the "+" icon next to "Feeds" in the main view. This will show all
-the available Opie packages (you can change which packages to view by selecting
-something else from the "Section" pulldown). Installed packages are marked
-with a blue circle, while packages that are not installed are marked with a red
-box. If you click on the icon for an uninstalled package, it will turn into an
-open box, with a blue circle coming out of it, indicating that you have marked
-this package to be installed. Mark as many packages as you wish this way, and
-then press the "Apply" icon (same red box and blue dot icon) to install all
-the marked packages. It will also remove any packages marked for removal (see
-below). Clicking this will open a window showing all the packages marked to be
-removed and installed, with some check boxes on the bottom, which represent
-arguments to be sent to ipkg, which you can usually ignore. After verifying
-that all the packages to be installed are correct, press "Ok" in the upper
-right corner (or press "x" to cancel and go back to the package selection
-window). The packages should then install, and you should see their icons
-appear in the Launcher, if they are Opie applications.

-<para>
-Removing software is the same as installing software, except you will press the
-blue circle icon of an installed package, and it will have a red "X" over it.
-Then press the apply icon, and "Ok". You can install and remove packages at
-the same time by marking the ones you want to install and the ones you want to
-remove, and then pressing apply.
