NAME
       answerbook2 - online documentation system

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/dt/bin/answerbook2 [-h]

DESCRIPTION
       The  AnswerBook2	 server	 product is no longer included with Solaris or
       the Solaris Documentation CD products. Solaris docmentation is now pro‐
       vided  in  HTML	and  PDF  format  on the Documentation CD and does not
       require the AnswerBook2 server to be viewed.

       The answerbook2 utility opens the default web browser and  displays  an
       HTML page that shows a link to locally installed documentation, and, if
       the AnswerBook2 server has been defined, a link to AnswerBook2  collec‐
       tions.

       To  define  a default AnswerBook2 server, use the environment variable,
       AB2_DEFAULTSERVER.

       This functionality is also accessible through  the  AnswerBook2	option
       on the CDE front panel Help menu.

       If  you	need  an  AnswerBook2 server, you can download the AnswerBook2
       server software from http://www.sun.com.

OPTIONS
       The following option is supported:

       -h	Displays a usage statement.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
       AB2_DEFAULTSERVER       Fully-qualified URL that identifies the default
			       AnswerBook2   server   to   use.	 For  example:
