<h1><a id="start" name="start">Welcome to Haiku's Quick Tour</a></h1>
|
||
|
||
<p>While Haiku shares many ideas with other operating systems, it does have a unique approach in some areas that are worth pointing out. In just a few slides, you’ll learn about the most important Haiku features and peculiarities that’ll help you get a running start.</p>
|
||
<p>At the bottom right of each page, are links for "further reading" that point to additional resources, like related topics in the <a href="https://www.haiku-os.org/docs/userguide/en/contents.html" target="_blank">Userguide</a>.</p>

<h1><a id="deskbar" name="deskbar">The Deskbar</a></h1>
|
||
|
||
<p>By default at the top right corner of the desktop, the Deskbar is the hub of interacting with Haiku. You can start applications, applets and preferences from there, for example, and switch between running applications.</p>

|

<p>Here's a typical Haiku window with its usual widgets:</p>
|
||
|
||
<!-- [screenshot of window, annotated: Close button, Zoom button (usually maximizes the window), Double-click the tab to hide/minimize a window (find it again in the Deskbar), Move a window by grabbing it at the tab or border, Resize from the corner or by dragging a border with the right mouse button.] -->

|

|
||
<p>The <span class="app">Keymap</span> preferences let you switch from the Haiku standard <span class="key">ALT</span> key to <span class="key">CTRL</span> (Windows/Linux mode). This is a global switch, so for example quitting a program in the shell will then be done with <span class="key">ALT</span> <span class="key">C</span> instead the usual <span class="key">CTRL</span> <span class="key">C</span>.<br />
|
||
This inconsistancy is one reason for the default <span class="key">ALT</span> shortcut in Haiku.</p>

<p>"Stacking" is putting windows on top of each other, automatically moving the yellow tabs into position.<br />
|
||
While holding the <span class="key">OPT</span> key (normally that's <span class="key">WIN</span> on the keyboard), tabs change color when they overlap; drop the window to establish the stacking.<br />
|

You un-stack by holding <span class="key">OPT</span> and dragging a window out of its group by the yellow tab.</p>

<p>Workspaces are virtual desktops, complete with their own resolution, color depth and background.<br />
|

Up to 32 of these workspaces can be set from the <span class="app">Screen</span> preferences.</p>
|
||
<p>The <span class="app">Workspaces</span> desktop applet can be used to change workspaces or to drag a window from one to another.</p>

<p>The quick keyboard shortcut to change workspaces is <span class="key">CTRL</span> <span class="key">ALT</span> <span class="key">←</span> / <span class="key">→</span> / <span class="key">↑</span> / <span class="key">↓</span>.<br />

Provided Deskbar's option to <span class="menu">Show replicants</span> is activated, replicants are indicated by a small handle.<br />

<p>Double-clicking your way down folder after folder, you'll quickly end up with many open Tracker windows.<br />

Holding the <span class="key">OPT</span> key (normally <span class="key">WIN</span> on the keyboard) prevents this as it automatically closes the parent folder.<br />

|

<p>A nice alternative to opening a deep hierarchy of folders is called "drill-down navigation". Right-clicking a folder or anywhere in a Tracker window (or the Desktop) will open a context menu. Beside various expected commands, there's a menu of the current folder at the top that contains all its subfolders.<br />
|
||
Drill your way down until you find the folder or file to open.</p>

<p>In order to access a harddisk, CD, USB stick etc., you first have to mount the volume. Once mounted, its icon appears on the Desktop.<br />
|
||
This is done with a right-click on the Desktop or an already mounted volume (like the boot disk) and choosing the volume from the <span class="menu">Mount</span> submenu. You find the same <span class="menu">Mount</span> menu in the Deskbar. ISO images can be mounted with a double-click.</p>

<h1><a id="filesystem" name="filesystem">Filesystem layout</a></h1>

<p>While Haiku is currently not multi-user, there are already two branches in the filesystem tree:</p>

|

<table summary="layout" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="8">
|
||
<tr><td><img src="../images/quicktour/folder_haiku.png" alt="System" /><br /><span class="path">/boot/system/</span></td><td> </td><td>The system hierarchy contains system files and settings for all users. The package management makes most folders under /system effectively read-only. Packages contain all their files in a fixed folder hierarchy. Upon installation, a package gets "mounted" and all its files just appear to be in that hierarchy in the /system folder.<br />
|
||
The folders there (like <i>add-ons</i>, <i>apps</i>, <i>bin</i> etc.) are just a virtual amalgamation of all the installed packages and are therefore read-only. Exceptions are <i>cache</i>, <i>non-packaged</i>, <i>settings</i>, and <i>var</i>.
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><span class="path">/system/packages/</span> is the default install location for software.</li>

The folder /boot/home/config (or shortened ~/config) mirrors the /system folder described above and is likewise virtually read-only with the same exceptions of <i>cache</i>, <i>non-packaged</i>, <i>settings</i>, and <i>var</i>.
|
||
<ul>
|

<li><span class="path">~/Desktop/</span> is where the files of your Desktop live.</li>

<p>Files on Haiku formatted (BFS) volumes are quickly searched with <span class="menu">Find…</span> from the Deskbar. Instead of file and folder names, you can also look through filetype specific attributes, e.g. for an artist in your MP3 collection.</p>

<p>You can connect to your WLAN router either by right-clicking the <span class="app">NetworkStatus</span> icon in Deskbar's tray,<br />

or by selecting your network from the <span class="app">Network</span> preferences.<br />

When the connection is established, you'll be asked for the network's encryption and password.</p>
