| 1 Welcome to the OS-9 documentation effort. The motivation behind scanning | |
| 2 and reissuing the documentation is that without documentation no new | |
| 3 users will discover OS-9. This little operating system is more than 20 | |
| 4 years old, and we want it to be here for at least another 20 years. | |
| 5 | |
| 6 We have therefore tried to find the most durable and rich format | |
| 7 for documents possible. DocBook is more than 10 years old. Older than | |
| 8 MS-Word. It began in 1991 as a joint project of HaL Computer Systems and | |
| 9 O'Reilly. It will very likely be around in 2020 also. If it isn't it is | |
| 10 a text-based format, so it is possible to reverse-engineer and convert | |
| 11 the format. | |

| 13 To create HTML, PDF or PostScript you must have these RPMs installed on | |
| 14 your RedHat system: | |
