<P>A massive collection of Linux HOWTO documents is usually included with each Linux distribution. Red Hat Linux 5.0 comes with nearly 200 documents, requiring more than 6 MB in compressed form! HOWTO documents are comprehensive, detailed guides to solving problems or for obtaining a quick education on specialized aspects of using Linux.
</P>
<P>To read one of the regular HOWTO documents (compressed text, not <TT>.html</TT>, <TT>.sgml</TT>, <TT>.dvi</TT>, or <TT>.ps</TT>), use the <TT>zless</TT> command, followed by the path and name of the document, like this:</P>
<!-- CODE SNIP //-->
<PRE>
<B># zless /usr/doc/HOWTO/Serial-HOWTO.gz</B>
</PRE>
<!-- END CODE SNIP //-->
<P>Table C.1 provides a quick summary of each compressed HOWTO.
