About DMDE Help

DMDE help files can be used standalone or as a context sensitive help.

The most recent and actual help and translations are available on the software sites.

Due to the lack of screenshots it is recommended to run the software while reading the manual.

There are some additional software parameters for "advanced" users. It is recommended to keep default values detected automatically for such unclear parameters. Understanding these parameters requires a deeper knowledge of file systems and disks, which explanation is beyond the scope of this guide. At the same time "advanced" users can guess parameter meanings from their names. Therefore there is no description for such parameters in this manual.

Bold font or green font is usually used for the software interface terms or for the commands.

In order to open CHM file in Windows you should copy it to a local disk and unblock the file (right click for Properties and press Unblock).

Context Sensitive Help

Context sensitive help can be called from the most dialog boxes by pressing F1/ Shift+F1/ Shift+F11 keys or button Help. Supported in Linux and Windows only.

Help is available in the form of a set of HTML files under both Linux and Windows. CHM files are supported under Windows.

By default CHM files are used under Windows. To use HTML files remove CHM files and copy directory man_en to the software directory or other man directories to the directory locals. HTML files are opened using default system browser.

In Linux command xdg-open is used to call the default application for HTML files. You may use another command using parameter shellopen=.
