<title>Application Guide for Migrates</title>

<!-- Section needs a +lot+ of work. I couldn't do any of the Mac equivalents, as I haven't used it before. More entries could be put in, too. -->

<para>&tde; has many applications, often prefixed with (or containing) the letter k. The names are generally self-explanatory, but it can still be difficult sometimes to find the appropriate packages. Migrates from operating systems such as <trademark class="registered">Microsoft Windows</trademark> or <trademark class="registered">Apple Macintosh</trademark> might have some difficulty in locating an application for a particular job. Below is a table with an expansion on the &kmenu; and the respective Win/Mac equivalent.</para>
