<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>
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
+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).

<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).
