+
+<para>The &kde; help system is designed to make accessing the common

+<application>info</application>) simple, as well as the native &kde;
+documentation (&XML;).
+</para>
+
+<para> All base &kde; applications come fully documented, thanks to
+the efforts of the Documentation team. If you would like to help,
+please write to the Documentation coordinator, Lauri Watts, at
+<email>lauri@kde.org</email> for information. No experience is
+required, just enthusiasm and patience.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+If you would like to help translating &kde; documentation to your native
+language, the Translation coordinator is Thomas Diehl,
+<email>thd@kde.org</email>, and he would also welcome the help. More
+information, including the coordinators for each language team, can be
+found on the <ulink url="http://i18n.kde.org">Internationalization web
+site</ulink>, and in the <link linkend="contact">Contact</link> section

+<sect2 id="man-and-info">
+<title>The <application>Man</application> and <application>Info</application>
+sections</title>
+
+<para>Man pages are the standard &UNIX; manual pages, and have been in
+use for many years on many operating systems. They are extremely
+thorough, and are the very best place to get information about most
+&UNIX; commands and applications. When people say
+<quote>RTFM</quote>, the Manual they are referring to is very often the
+man page.</para>
+
+<para>The man pages are not perfect. They tend to be in depth, but
+also extremely technical, often written by developers, and for
+developers. In some cases this makes them somewhat unfriendly, if not
+downright impossible for many users to understand. They are, however,
+the best source of solid information on most command line
+applications, and very often the only source.</para>
+
+<para>If you've ever wondered what the number is when people write
+things like man(1) it means which section of the manual the item is
+in. You will see &khelpcenter; uses the numbers to divide the very many
+man pages into their own sections, making it easier for you to find
+the information you're looking for, if you're just browsing.</para>
+
+<para>Also available are the Info pages, intended to be a replacement
+for the man pages. The maintainer of some applications no longer
+update the man pages, so if there is both a man page and an info page
+available, the info page is probably the most recent. Most
+applications have one or the other though. If the application you are
+looking for help on is a &GNU; utility, you will most likely find it
+has an info page, not a man page.</para>
+
+<sect3 id="navigation">
+<title>Navigating inside the <application>Info</application> pages</title>
+
+<para>Info documents are arranged hierarchically with each page called
+a node. All info documents have a <guilabel>Top</guilabel> node,
+<abbrev>i.e.</abbrev> the opening page. You can return to the
+<guilabel>Top</guilabel> of an info document by pressing
+<guilabel>Top</guilabel>.</para>
+
+<para><guibutton>Prev</guibutton> &amp; <guibutton>Next</guibutton>
+are used to move to the previous/next page at the current level of the
+hierarchy.</para>
+
+<para>Clicking on a menu item within a document moves you to a lower
+level in the hierarchy. You may move up the hierarchy by pressing
+<guibutton>Up</guibutton>.</para>
+
+<para>Man is treated similarly to info, with the section index being
+the Top node and each man page on the level below. Man entries are
+one page long.</para>
