While it is possible to just browse the manuals until you find that piece of information you're looking for, this may be a very time-consuming task. To make this easier for you, &kde; offers fulltext search using a program called <application ->ht://dig</application ->. It works quite similar to search engines on the web, in fact some search engines you now might even use it. Just click on the <guilabel ->Search</guilabel -> tab in the &khelpcenter;, enter the word you are looking for, click <guibutton ->Search</guibutton -> and enjoy!</para> - -<para ->However, to make use of this feature, <application ->ht://dig</application -> has to be installed on your system and &kde; has to be configured to make us of it. This control module tries to help you doing the latter. If you haven't installed <application ->ht://dig</application -> and it wasn't shipped with your operating system you have to get ht://dig yourself. Have a look at <ulink url="http://www.htdig.org" ->the ht://dig homepage</ulink -> on how to download and install it.</para> - -<para ->When you first start, you are in display mode only. To modify your settings, click on <guibutton ->Administrator Mode</guibutton ->.

By adding this path to the list of additional search paths you make this documentation available to &khelpcenter;'s fulltext search, too. Just click on the <guibutton ->Add</guibutton -> button and a file dialogue will ask you for an additional search folder.
