Documentation
|
||||
=============
|
||||
|
||||
It's a fact that one of the biggest problems with today's software is lack of
|
||||
good documentation, or any documentation for that matter. Programmers generally
|
||||
don't have a lot of time to document their work, and the things they do document
|
||||
are usually oriented towards other programmers. While we can appreciate the
|
||||
programmers point of view, we feel it's necessary to cater to a larger audience
|
||||
(i.e our users) by providing clear, concise information on how to use our
|
||||
software. The sections below will bring all of these pieces of information
|
||||
together for you.
|
||||
|
||||
Before you get started with Window Maker, you need to have an understanding of
|
||||
how to make use of the documentation that comes with the source distribution.
|
||||
The main objective to using documentation is to **understand** it, which
|
||||
coincidentally requires that you **read** it. A common mistake is for new or
|
||||
novice users to overlook this information, leading them to frustration and a bad
|
||||
first impression. Please take a moment to peruse the sections below, which
|
||||
should make the experience of learning Window Maker a more pleasant one.

Very frequently asked question
|
||||
------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
- **Can I easily mount my external drives or connect to the internet with Window
|
||||
Maker?**
|
||||
|
||||
Yes, you can. Mounting external media is not the problem of a window manager
|
||||
to solve, but a tipical Window Maker user can mount external media just as
|
||||
easily as any other desktop user. If you use a dockapp like
|
||||
[wmvolman](https://github.com/raorn/wmvolman) or
|
||||
[wmudmount](http://sourceforge.net/projects/wmudmount) you are just a
|
||||
click away from having your external media mounted on `/media/VOLUME_LABEL`.
|
||||
|
||||
And you can just as easily manage your network connections using the standard
|
||||
`nm-applet` running in a system tray like
|
||||
[wmsystemtray](http://sourceforge.net/projects/wmsystemtray) on your dock.
