2.1.6 Master Index (revised)
The Master Index can help you find the information you need in the core
documentation set, as follows:
• In the printed version of this book, the index items direct you to the
books and pages where the topic is discussed.
• In the online version of this book, clicking on an index entry in many
cases will take you to the appropriate book at the point where the topic is
discussed. For the Common Desktop Environment books and a few other
books, clicking on the index item will take you only to the beginning of
the appropriate book, where you can then use the table of contents or the
book’s index to find out where the topic is discussed.
The Documentation Library on CD–ROM and the Web includes a search
utility with the Master Index entry. When you enter a word or phrase
you want to find, the search utility searches all Master Index entries for
matches and then displays the results. Then when you click on an entry
in the search results, the target book opens in its own window — in most
cases, to the place in the text that is indicated by the entry. Figure 2–1
shows the result of a search on the text string “bsd.”

2.1.7 Programming Support Tools
The online version of the Programming Support Tools manual is included
with the General User information because it contains information of
interest to non-programmers. However, the printed version is included only
in the Developer’s Documentation Kit. See Section 4.1.11 for information
about this manual.
