Red Hat's Linux Library CD.
This Documentation CD, complied by Eric Troan of Red Hat Software, which
features a superfast browser, is a massive compilation of all the available
documentation on Linux and its related technologies. This advanced Linux
reference application is produced in partnership with Pacific Hi-Tech.
Featuring the equivalent of over 40,000 pages of fully searchable
documentation this is the tool you need to save time and frustration in
trying to find answers to your most obscure questions about Linux.
Use Red Hat's Linux Library CD to:
o. Quickly Find all the available references to any question about
Linux, the X Window System, the Compilers, etc... that has ever
been written and made available on the massive Internet
archives.
o. Run Linux with Less Effort: Quick access to the answers you need,
when you need them will allow you to solve your Linux
installation configuration, and use, questions faster than ever.
o. Learn UNIX- You get all the reference material you need for
learning C, C++ and other Compilers, the X Window System with
window managers, full Unix networking including TCP/IP, Slip
and PPP, SendMail, email, and more...
o. Advanced Uses: Research for writing manuals for Linux products.
Historical review of the progress of these technologies.
Technical support.
What You Get:
* Browser Application: A high speed X Window based search engine
behind an elegant graphical browser that makes searching this
material fast and easy.
* 40,000+ Pages of Content: In short you get everything, but here is
a partial list:
* Start with the complete works of the Linux Documentation Project
(LDP), including all texts and how-to's. Keep in mind, the LDP
represents only 1,200 pages of the searchable reference material
on this collection!
* Complete comp.os.linux.announce archive
* Linux and Linux related man pages
* Internet Engineering RFC's
* GNU docs.
* Usenet FAQ's on all the language compilers for Linux, System
Admin, Security and Privacy, JPEG and MPEG, lists of free
software, etc...
* much more....
We are not sure how to classify this product. It is more useful than any
single book you can name, and includes a browser technology that qualifies
it as an advanced application.
We've already had reports of system administrators mounting the Linux
Library permanently in a CD drive in order to offer much faster response to
their user support calls.
Whatever you choose to use it for, you will find that this is unlike any
reference CD you have ever looked at before. The sheer volume of material
that is included and the speed of the browser technology put this CD in a
class by itself. There just isn't CD documentation like this on SUN or any
other UNIX OS. Pity. :)
