NAME

Intro - introduction to the OpenWindows Desktop Reference Manual

OVERVIEW

The Solaris OpenWindows system includes some sophisticated clients referred to as the Solaris DeskSet suite. These are workgroup productivity tools like Calendar Manager and Mailtool that take advantage of the value-added enhancements to the Solaris X server.

This manual and the Solaris X Window System Reference Manual cover all man pages that make up the SUNWaman software package, other than those in Section 3. This package is usually installed as part of the "Developer" software set during initial installation of Solaris. The default installation directory for these man pages is /usr/openwin/man. To access these man pages, add /usr/openwin/man to the $MANPATH environment varriable.
