<h3>Documentation</h3><br />
|
|
|
|
<p>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.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>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 <strong>understand</strong>
|
|
it, which coincidentally requires that you <strong>read</strong> 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.</p>

<h2> Can I easily mount my external drives or connect to the internet with Window Maker?</h2>
|
|
<p> 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 <a href="http://dockapps.windowmaker.org/file.php/id/275">wmvolman</a> or
|
|
<a href="http://dockapps.windowmaker.org/file.php/id/357">wmudmount</a> you are just a click away from
|
|
having your external media mounted on /media/VOLUME_LABEL.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p> And you can just as easily manage your network connections using the standard <code>nm-applet</code> running
|
|
in a system tray on your dock. See for example the excellent <a href="http://dockapps.windowmaker.org/file.php/id/355">wmsystemtray</a>.</p>
