# Useful Documentation

This is a list of documents that might be interesting to people providing Unix support - mainly user guides and system administration. In some cases this list points direcly to a document and in others to an entry in the WWW server of the institute. The list is far from complete and you can certainly find further documentation by connecting directly to the 'home pages' of other HEP institutes.

Many of these documents are in postscript format and of a length where printing is more appropriate than reading online.

Using xmosaic, to get the source of a postscript document rather than displaying it, before selecting the document, set the 'Option' binary (top of xmosaic screen). When you select the document you will be presented with the possibility to pass the file through a filer or simply copy it to disk. Don't forget to turn the 'binary' option off when you have finished!

If you are using the line-mode browser, you will have to select the document, the postscript will be displayed illegibally on you screen and you can then enter the command 'source >filename' to write the postscript to a local file.
