Subject:    -1- How can I quickly find the information I want in the SGI
                FAQs?

  - The FAQs follow the RFC1153 recommendations for message digests and
    thus can be viewed easily with newsreaders that understand message
    digests.

  - Each question has a Subject: line, so you can easily step through
    the answers with rn's ^G command.

  - Each question is marked with a "dash number dash" so that you can
    find any answer with a simple search pattern.

  - Questions marked with a '+' in the subject line are new this
    posting; those marked with a '!' have significant new content since
    the last posting. Similarly, '+' and '!' in the left margin mark
    added or changed text. Questions marked with a '-' in the subject
    line will be removed in the next edition or so unless someone
    convinces us otherwise.

  - Don't forget about text searching!  There's an excellent chance the
    information you want is in the FAQs, but not obvious from the table
    of contents.  Every file viewer, editor and WWW browser has a way of
    finding arbitrary text in a file.
