<BR>You can quickly find information in the HOWTO series without listing the <TT>/usr/doc/HOWTO</TT> directory. First, log on as the root operator, and then use the <TT>gunzip</TT> command, along with its <TT>-r</TT> (recursive) option to decompress the entire directory tree under the <TT>/usr/doc/HOWTO</TT> directory, like this:
<!-- CODE SNIP //-->
<PRE>
<B># gunzip -r /usr/doc/HOWTO/*</B>
</PRE>
<!-- END CODE SNIP //-->
<P>Next, combine the <TT>find</TT>, <TT>xargs</TT>, <TT>head</TT>, and <TT>less</TT> commands to find and list the first 20 lines from the top of each file, like this:</P>
<!-- CODE SNIP //-->
<PRE>
<B># find /usr/doc/HOWTO/* | xargs head -v -n 20 | less</B>
</PRE>
<!-- END CODE SNIP //-->
<P>You can now peruse the contents of your HOWTO documents!</TABLE>
