Not sure if I'm doing this right. Sure seems like it would be easier than this. I want to find some help in konquerer (where is history?). I go to the help drop-down and select konqueror handbook Brings up "The Konqueror Handbook" in KDE Help Center type anything to search for, and it doesn't search in the handbook, it searches realease notes, adminguide, userguide, etc. Then, at that point the handbook is gone and there is no way back to it. Just dumped off at a dead end. frustrating. B-)_

Is there a way to limit the search to within just the handbook or whatever help you using the KDE Help Center for? Is there a way to enable the "back" button so you can get back to the manual you were looking at? Seems counter-intuitive B-)
Nobody has a comment on this? B-) On Thursday 09 December 2004 09:28 am, Brad Bourn wrote:

Your posts prompted me (finally) to see if I could figure this out. Yay! I did, after a bit of digging (no pun intended) around the documentation at htdig.org. Nice that no manpages or info files are included with htdig package. as root (login shell, not sudo): rundig open SuSE help center (you can do this as non-root, just need to specify the root password before it will actually begin building the index files) select "search" press "create search index" at the bottom on the left select scope of search index in the "build search index" popup press "apply" wait for a shorter or longer time, depending on whether you specified a HOWTO index(*) :-) when it says it's done, press "OK" done (*) Note: the HOWTOs probably aren't the only thing that can inflate the index creation time; for example, if you have a lot of devel stuff installed and also specified development libraries for the scope, well.... I hope you made plans to go out for the evening :-) wheeeee, it's done.. the howto wordlist index and database total over 86 MB. I don't have that much devel stuff, so the whole thing is "only" 102MB.

I didn't realize it was a package, I just thought it was built-in HELP.
as root (login shell, not sudo): rundig
well, it is still running... and running... I did find /var/lib/htdig/db and am watching the files grow...
open SuSE help center (you can do this as non-root, just need to specify the root password before it will actually begin building the index files) select "search" press "create search index" at the bottom on the left select scope of search index in the "build search index" popup press "apply" wait for a shorter or longer time, depending on whether you specified a HOWTO index(*) :-) when it says it's done, press "OK"
I think I just did that before I started the rundig, I had everything selected except... something -PAM ( whatever that is).
done
(*) Note: the HOWTOs probably aren't the only thing that can inflate the index creation time; for example, if you have a lot of devel stuff installed and also specified development libraries for the scope, well.... I hope you made plans to go out for the evening :-)
well, I can switch back to my KDE login ( I did CTRL-ALT-F1 to get to a text-login for root) and play mahjohng :)

Oh, I knew it was a package long ago, around 7.2 I think, just never did anything about it :-)
