+"<h1>Purpose</h1>"
+"<p>This tool lets you manage software, as in 'install, remove, update applications'.</p>"
+"<p>openSUSE's software management is also called 'package management'. A package is "
+"generally an application bundle, but multiple packages that extend the application "
+"may be offered in order to avoid clutter (e.g. games tend to de-couple the music "
+"data in another package, since its not essential and requires significant disk space). "
+"The base package will get the application's name, while extra packages are suffix-ed. "
+"Common extras are:</p>"
+"<ul>"
+"<li>-plugin-: extends the application with some extra functionality.</li>"
+"<li>-devel: needed for software development.</li>"
+"<li>-debuginfo: needed for software beta-testing.</li>"
+"<li>-fr, -dr, -pl (language siglas): translation files (your language package will "
+"be marked for installation automatically).</li>"
+"</ul>"
+"<p>You will find both packages installed on your system, and packages that are made "
+"available through the setup-ed repositories. You cans either install or upgrade "
+"an available package, or remove an installed one.</p>"
+"<blockquote>A repository is a packages media; it can either be local (like your Suse CDs), "
+"or a remote internet server. You can find utilities to setup repositories "
+"on the YaST control center.</blockquote>"
+""
+"<h1>Usage</h1>"
+"<h2>Available, Upgrades, Installed buttons</h2>"
+"<p>These buttons produce listings of the different sources of packages. 'Available' "
+"are the ones from the setup-ed repositories less those you have installed. "
+"'Installed' lists the packages installed in your system. 'Upgrades' is a "
+"mix listing of the installed packages that have more recent versions available. "
+"'All' will combine all sources.</p>"
+""
+"<h2>Filters</h2>"
+"<p>Enter free text into the search-field to match their names and descriptions. "
+"(a search for 'office' will bring up the 'OpenOffice' packages as well as "
+"AbiWord which carries the word 'office' in its description). You can also "
+"choose to view software from a specific repository.</p>"
+""
+"<h2>Categories & Collections</h2>"
+"<p>Software for openSUSE is indexed so that you can find software for a specific "
+"task when you don't know the name of the software you are looking for. Browse "
+"indices of software by using the tree-view in the left column; you can view the "
+"available software by their Package names, or grouped in 'Categories' or 'Patterns' "
+"by the selecting a view-mode from the drop-down-menu below. Categories' are simple, "
+"hierarchical classifications of software packages, like 'Multimedia/Video', while "
+"'Patterns' are task-oriented collections of multiple packages that install like one "
+"(the installation of the 'server'-pattern for example will install various software "
+"needed for running a server). By using 'Install All' you make sure that future "
+"collection changes, when you upgrade openSUSE, will be honored.</p>"
+""
+"<h2>Software details in the box below</h2>"
+"<p>In the package detail view you can perform actions affecting this software; "
+"like install, uninstall, version-upgrade or -downgrade. All changes that you "
+"make will be saved, but not yet performed.</p>"
+"<p>You can review changes in the right-side pane of the software-manager. You can "
+"revoke changes individually at any time by clicking the 'undo'-button next to "
+"a saved change.</p>"
+"<p>The lock button can be used to lock the selected package state; it won't allow "
+"some automatic operation to install, upgrade or remove the package. This is only "
+"useful in very unusual cases: for instance, you may not want to install some "
+"drivers because they interfer with your system, yet you want to install some "
+"collection that includes them.</p>"
+"<p>The changes will be performed once you decide to click the 'perform changes' "
+"button in the lower-right corner. If you want to leave the software-manager "
+"without performing any changes, simply press the button labeled 'Abort'.</p>"

+"<h1>Usage</h1>"
+"<h2>Categories</h2>"

+"performance slowdown)</li>"
