NAME
     desktophelp - IRIX Interactive Desktop(TM) Help System Subprogram

SYNOPSIS
     desktophelp


DESCRIPTION
     desktophelp is a program that is launched from the IRIX Interactive
     Desktop(TM) Toolchest, under the "Help" menu. Depending upon which
     version of IRIX you are running, the specific submenu item that launches
     desktophelp is either "Desktop Help" (IRIX 6.2), "How Do I..." (IRIX 6.3
     or IRIX 6.4), or "Quick Answers" (IRIX 6.5).  desktophelp has the simple
     task of posting a request to the sgihelp(1) process. If this process is
     not running, it will start-up automatically.

     At the point sgihelp is invoked, desktophelp exits.  sgihelp(1) then
     displays a list of topics about the IRIX Interactive Desktop(TM).
     Double-clicking on any available entry will display information about
     that topic in the sgihelp(1) viewer.


FILES
     /usr/sbin/desktophelp

     For sgihelp to properly display the list of topics, all online books from
     the desktop_eoe.books product subsystem should be installed.
