ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 55. Getting Started ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
You can use either a mouse or the keyboard to make selections and move through
a list or a book.
Making selections using the mouse
In BookManager, all instructions to click or double-click the mouse button
refer to mouse button 1.
Usually, a single click is used to select (emphasize) a menu choice. A single
click on a pushbutton at the bottom of the window processes the selected
choices. A single click both selects and processes choices from an action bar
or pull-down. You can also use a double-click to both select and process
choices from a list or reference links.
For example, you can:
o Open a book or a bookshelf by double-clicking on its name in the Books
and Bookshelves window or the Bookshelf window.
o Make an open window active by clicking on the window or by
double-clicking on its icon if it has been minimized.
o Select an action bar, pull-down, or pushbutton choice by positioning the
pointer on the desired choice and clicking the mouse button.
o Select a menu choice (radio button or check box) on a window by
positioning the pointer on the desired choice and clicking the mouse
button. Then process your selections by clicking on the desired
pushbutton at the bottom of the window.
o Display a topic, figure, table, or index subject by double-clicking on an
entry in the Table of Contents, Figures, Tables, or Index window,
respectively.
o Expand a topic heading in the Table of Contents or the list in the Search
Results window by clicking on the Plus (+) icon next to the topic number
or identifier (unnumbered name). Collapse a topic heading by clicking on
the Minus (-) icon next to the topic number or identifier.
In the Books and Bookshelves window and the Bookshelf window, you can select
more than one choice from the list. To select more than one book or bookshelf
with a mouse, press and hold Ctrl while you click on each name or icon.
If the choices you want to select are adjacent, click and hold the mouse
button on the first name or icon. Drag the mouse button to the last name or
icon, then release it.
Making selections using the keyboard
Use the Tab key to move from one area or group of choices to another,
including the pushbuttons at the bottom of the window. Use the arrow keys to
move to a selection within an entry group and from one pushbutton to the next.
Press Enter to process the action after you have made your selections.
o Open a book or a bookshelf by using the arrow keys to move the cursor to
the desired choice. If the choice is not already emphasized, press the
Spacebar to select it. Then press Enter.
o Make an open window active within the Book window by selecting the Window
pull-down, positioning the cursor on the desired choice, and pressing
Enter.
o Move from one primary window to another by pressing Alt+Esc.
o Move to and from the action bar by pressing F10 or Alt.
o Select from the action bar, pull-down, Table of Contents, Tables,
Figures, or Index by using the arrow keys to move the cursor to the
desired choice and pressing Enter.
o Select a radio button on a window by using the arrow keys to move the
cursor to the desired choice. Then process your selections by pressing
Enter.
o Select a check box on a window by using the arrow keys to move the cursor
to the desired choice. Then press the Spacebar to select it. Process your
selections by pressing Enter.
o Selections from the action bar and pull-downs can also be made by typing
the underlined letter while the pull-down is displayed.
o Use the shortcut keys shown next to certain pull-down choices (for
example, Ctrl+C) to select and enter your choice simultaneously.
o To expand a topic heading:
1. Use the arrow keys to move the cursor to a topic in the Table of
Contents or Search Results window that has a Plus (+) icon next to
it.
2. Press F10 or Alt to move to the action bar.
3. Move the cursor to Tree on the Options pull-down and press Enter.
Make a selection to expand and press Enter.
o To collapse a topic heading:
1. Use the arrow keys to move the cursor to a topic in the Table of
Contents or Search Results window that has a Minus (-) icon next to
it.
2. Press F10 or Alt to move to the action bar.
3. Move the cursor to Tree on the Options pull-down and press Enter.
Make a selection to collapse and press Enter.
In the Books and Bookshelves window and the Bookshelf window, you can select
more than one choice from the list.
The Details or Name view must be in effect to select more than one book or
bookshelf with the keyboard. To select more than one book or bookshelf with
the keyboard, move the cursor to the name or icon of the first selection.
Press the Spacebar to select it if it is not already emphasized. Press
Shift+F8 to begin Add mode. Use the arrow keys to move to the name or icon of
each additional book or bookshelf that you want to select and press the
Spacebar. When you have finished selecting the books and bookshelves, press
Shift+F8 again to end Add mode.
Radio buttons, check boxes, and pushbuttons
Radio buttons allow you to select only one choice from a group of selections.
Click on a choice to select it, or use the arrow keys to move from one choice
to another within a group. A radio button is darkened when it is selected.
Check boxes allow you to select from a fixed group of choices. You can select
multiple check boxes, one check box, or no check boxes. Click on a choice to
select it, or use the arrow keys to move from one choice to another within a
group and then press the Spacebar. Repeat this procedure to deselect the
choice. When a check box is selected, the choice is marked with an X.
Pushbuttons, which appear at the bottom of each window, are used to process
your selections on a window. Click on a pushbutton to process your selections,
or use the arrow keys to move from one pushbutton to the next and then press
Enter. When a pushbutton is selected, the border surrounding it is darkened.
Shortcut keys and icons
Shortcut keys are available for many actions. Select Keys help on the Help
pull-down to display a list of available keys and their definitions.
Shortcut keys allow you to complete an action or move to a window without
selecting it from a pull-down. Some shortcut keys are displayed to the right
of certain choices on the pull-downs. For example, press Ctrl+C to display the
Table of Contents window.
You can also type the underlined letter on an action bar or pull-down choice
to select that choice. This technique works only while the pull-down is
displayed. For example, type the letter B from the GoTo pull-down in the Book
window to display the Tables window.
You can use the following icons to complete certain BookManager functions:
Plus (+) icon
To expand a topic heading in the Table of Contents or get more
information about search matches in the Search Results window. To
expand a heading, click on the Plus icon, or move the cursor to the
heading and press + on the numeric key pad.
Minus (-) icon
To collapse a topic heading in the Table of Contents or remove the
search match information from the Search Results window. To collapse
a heading, click on the Minus icon, or move the cursor to the
heading and press - on the numeric key pad.
Note icon
To view or edit a margin note in the book. To display a note,
double-click on the Note icon, or move the cursor to the icon and

When you first open the Books and Bookshelves window or the
Bookshelf window, the book and bookshelf entries consist of icons
and names only. To display a book or a bookshelf, double-click on
the icon, or move the cursor to the icon and press Enter. If the
entries are arranged in an Icon or Mini-icon view, they can be
rearranged by dragging the mouse.
Moving around
You can move through text in the Topic window or entries in a list window
(such as the Books and Bookshelves window or the Table of Contents) with a
mouse by clicking on the up arrow or down arrow on the scroll bar.
You can also drag the slider box in the scroll bar up or down to move through
the text within a chapter. To drag the slider box, position the mouse pointer
on the box, press and hold down the mouse button, and move the box up or down,
right or left. Then release the mouse button.
Use the PgUp or PgDn key on the keyboard to move the Topic window up or down
within a chapter. You can move from topic to topic by using the Previous topic
and Next topic pushbuttons on the Topic window.
Hypertext or cross-reference links
Hypertext or cross-reference links are included in a book by the author to
direct you to another area of the book that contains related information, such
as a figure, a table, or another topic.
You can move to the referenced area by double-clicking on the emphasized text,
or by moving the cursor to the emphasized text and pressing Enter. After you
have viewed the related information, use Previous link or reference on the
GoTo pull-down in the Book window to return to your original position in the
book.

are displayed at the top of the window.
The Topic window displays the following information when it is available in a
book:
o The beginning text of the selected topic is displayed. You can view the
entire topic by using the PgUp and PgDn keys or the scroll bar within a
chapter. You can move from topic to topic by using the Previous topic and
Next topic pushbuttons.

matches (Previous match and Next match).
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 57. Note Icon ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Use the Note icon in the Book window to view or change a margin note.
Double-click on the icon, or move the cursor to the icon and press Enter, to
display the margin note in the Margin Note window.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 58. Previous Topic ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Use Previous topic in the Book window to move backward from the active topic to
the beginning of the preceding topic in the book. The active topic is the topic
whose heading is displayed at the top of the Topic window.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 59. Next Topic ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Use Next topic in the Book window to move forward from the active topic to the
beginning of the next topic in the book. The active topic is the topic whose
heading is displayed at the top of the Topic window.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 60. Previous Match ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Use Previous match in the Book window to display the line that contains the
preceding search match as the first line in the Topic window.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 61. Next Match ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

search match as the first line in the Topic window.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 62. Cancel ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Use Cancel to return to the previously active window without processing your
selections.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 63. Primary, Secondary, and Pop-up Windows ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Three kinds of windows are displayed in BookManager: primary windows, secondary
windows, and pop-up windows. It is important to know how the windows differ,
because some actions can be performed on one type of window but not on another.
Primary windows have action bars (for example, the Bookshelf window). Secondary
and pop-up windows are displayed within a primary window and do not have action
bars.
Usually, a secondary window displays or lists parts of a book, or the results
of processing a function (for example, the book Search Results window). Both
primary and secondary windows can be made smaller or larger, or reduced to the
size of an icon. Primary and secondary windows remain open until you close
them, even though they may not be the active windows.
Pop-up windows are generally used to process functions (for example, the View
by Name window and the Create Margin Note window). A pop-up window cannot be
sized or reduced to an icon, and you cannot perform any other functions while
it is open. A pop-up window closes once you process the function.
An easy visual clue to distinguish secondary windows from pop-up windows is
that secondary windows have Minimize and Maximize icons, which resemble up and
down arrows, in the upper right corner of the window.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 64. Book Description ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Use Book Description to display additional information about the active book.
The descriptive information can include the title, the author, the date, the

Books pull-down in the Book window, or move the cursor to it and press Enter.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 65. OK ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Use OK in the Book Description window to remove the window.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 66. Close Book ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

Select one of the following:
Keep the current closing bookmark
To open the book to the previous bookmark the next time you open it
Place the closing bookmark
To open the book to the currently active topic the next time you

cursor to the pushbuttons and the right arrow key to move to the
Help pushbutton. Then click on the Help pushbutton or press Enter.
Each open book is a separate BookManager session, and you must close each
active session separately. When the last session is closed, you return to the
window that preceded it.
Note that any file you send to print must be in the OS/2 Print Manager printer
queue before you close the book or it will not print. A large text file, an
image file, or a graphics file may take a few minutes to format and reach the
printer queue.
The Close Book window is displayed when you click on Close on the Books
pull-down in the Book window, or move the cursor to it and press Enter.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 67. Keep the Current Closing Bookmark ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Use Keep the current closing bookmark in the Close Book window to return to the
previously set bookmark the next time you open the book. The book continues to
open to the same topic each time you select Keep the current closing bookmark,
until you reset the bookmark.

bookmark.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 68. Place the Closing Bookmark ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Use Place the closing bookmark in the Close Book window to return to the
currently active topic the next time you open the book. Any previous bookmark
that you may have set is canceled.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 69. Close without a Closing Bookmark ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Use Close without a closing bookmark in the Close Book window to delete the
previously set bookmark from the book. The book will open to its first topic
the next time you open it.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 70. Close ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Use Close to close the current Book window. You move to the next open
BookManager window, if there is one.
You must close each BookManager window separately. When the last open window is

bookshelf.

the books and bookshelves that were previously selected will be deselected.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 237. Copy Bookshelf ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Use Copy bookshelf on the Group pull-down in the Books and Bookshelves window

the Books and Bookshelves window.
When the bookshelf is successfully created, the list will be refreshed. All of
the books and bookshelves that were previously selected will be deselected.
Copy bookshelf is unavailable if no bookshelf is selected.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 238. Select All ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 240. Bookshelf ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
You can use a BookManager bookshelf to organize or group together all related
books or the books you use most often. BookManager organizes and displays all
of the books and bookshelves in the books and bookshelves path in the Books and
Bookshelves window. When you start BookManager, you can choose to work only
with the books in a specific bookshelf.
Some of the books in the bookshelf may not be on your system and cannot be
opened. However, if the bookshelf has a search index, you can still search
these books for specific words and phrases and list the books in the order of
importance of their search matches. This may help you decide which books to
obtain.
You can create or copy bookshelves in the Books and Bookshelves window, or
build them on a host computer using BookManager BUILD.
When a bookshelf is built on the host computer, the information in each book is
organized into a search index for the bookshelf.
This search index enables BookManager to search the books in a bookshelf more
rapidly. You can download the bookshelf file and the search index file from the
host computer to use them with BookManager.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 241. Book and Bookshelf Icons ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Icons, or picture symbols, are used in the Books and Bookshelves window and in
the Bookshelf window to represent books and bookshelves. The book icon
resembles an open book. The bookshelf icon resembles a group of books. To open
a bookshelf or a book, double-click on the icon.
When the Books and Bookshelves window or the Bookshelf window is arranged in an
Icon or Mini-icon view, the icons and file names can be moved into any
arrangement you prefer by dragging with the mouse.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 242. Search Index ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
A bookshelf search index increases the speed with which bookshelf searches can
be performed. A bookshelf created with a BookManager host computer program may
be associated with a search index. The search index contains a list of all the
words in the bookshelf.
The Book Description window (if it is opened from the Bookshelf window) and the
Bookshelf Description window specify whether a book or bookshelf is associated
with a search index file. Because the search index is created by a BookManager
host computer program, the search index cannot be changed within BookManager.
If you add a new book to a bookshelf that has a search index, the new book is
not added to the search index. You can include books that are not in the search
index in a bookshelf search. However, the search may be slower because each
book that is not in the index must be opened and searched individually.
A bookshelf search index may include books that are not on your system. This
lets you search the bookshelf for words and phrases in books that you do not
have and list them in the order of importance of their search matches, so that
you can decide whether to obtain them.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 243. OS/2 Wildcard Character ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
An asterisk (*) is used in OS/2 as a wildcard character to substitute for
unknown or unspecified letters or numbers in a file name. The OS/2 wildcard
character cannot be changed within BookManager.
An asterisk must be the last character in the file name. If an asterisk is the
only character in the file name, all of the books or bookshelves that satisfy
the View by Name window criteria are displayed.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 244. Books and Bookshelves Path ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
The books and bookshelves path defines for your system the location of books
and bookshelves that are displayed in the Books and Bookshelves window.
The entire path can consist of a single drive and directory specification, or
it can include multiple specifications. Whenever the fully qualified file name
for a selected file is not available to the system, the system searches each
drive and directory specification in the books and bookshelves path for the
selected file.
You can specify which drives and directories your system searches for books and
bookshelves when you install BookManager.
You can also change the path for the current session only. Use Change path on
the View pull-down in the Books and Bookshelves window.
