APPLICABILITY

SYNOPSIS

• Start a HyperHelp viewer:

hyperhelp [ helpfile ] [ -display ]

DESCRIPTION

Most printed documentation for ClearCase, ClearCase LT and MultiSite is provided in online form as hypertext Windows-style help files. The hyperhelp command starts a HyperHelp help viewer, in which you can view and navigate the help files.

The hyperhelp executable is installed in ccase-home-dir/bin (ccase-home-dir is the directory in which ClearCase or ClearCase LT is installed) and reads help files installed in ccase-home-dir/doc/hlp.

NOTE: You can also view hypertext reference pages with the man -graphical command.
