NAME

     answerbook2 - online documentation system


SYNOPSIS

     /usr/dt/bin/answerbook2 [-h]


DESCRIPTION

     The AnswerBook2 server product is no  longer  included  with
     Solaris  or  the  Solaris Documentation CD products. Solaris
     docmentation is now provided in HTML and PDF format  on  the
     Documentation CD and does not require the AnswerBook2 server
     to be viewed.

     The answerbook2 utility opens the default  web  browser  and
     displays an HTML page that shows a link to locally installed
     documentation, and,  if  the  AnswerBook2  server  has  been
     defined, a link to AnswerBook2 collections.

     To define a default AnswerBook2 server, use the  environment
     variable, AB2_DEFAULTSERVER.

     This functionality is also accessible  through  the  Answer-
     Book2 option  on the CDE front panel Help menu.

     If you need an AnswerBook2  server,  you  can  download  the
     AnswerBook2 server software from http://www.sun.com.
