Useful information in /usr/share/doc directory

Post by bigpup »

Puppy has a very useful doc directory.
However, to access it, you have to use a file manager and navigate to /usr/share/doc
To access, just left click on a file, to open and see, info inside.

Some of the Puppy specific info files:
home.htm ->opens in the browser with links to Puppy web sites.
forums.htm ->opens in the browser with links to Puppy forums.
index.htm ->the main Puppy help page.

/usr/share/doc has many other information and help files, usually accessed by the help in their respective programs.
But they also can be accessed by navigating to this doc directory.

The things you do not tell us, are usually the clue to fixing the problem.
When I was a kid, I wanted to be older.
This is not what I expected :o
