User Manual in Single page HTML Format

How to get a “Single page documentation”. It is easy to search across entire manual.

Surely ‘search’ will span more than a single page, or document…

  • Search Results for ‘document viewer’:

Application Manuals

  • krusader - KrViewer: Krusader’s internal viewer-editor
  • kate - Symbol Viewer Plugin
  • kate - Chapter 4. Working with Plugins
  • kate - Terminal Tool View Plugin
  • okular - Chapter 1. Introduction
  • krusader - The Krusader Handbook
  • khelpcenter - The KHelpCenter interface
  • kate - File System Browser
  • kate - The Kate Handbook
  • okular - The Okular Handbook
  • kcontrol6/filetypes - File Associations
  • kdiff3 - The KDiff3 Handbook
  • krusader - Glossary
  • kate - SQL Plugin
  • UNIX manual pages

Seems pretty easy to search across multiple entire manuals.

How to search on entire documentation: “The Okular Handbook”

NOTE: KDE discourse does not let me put URL!

  1. Open Okular
  2. Press F1 for help.
  3. Type the search in ‘search’.

NOTE: You don’t need to put a URL for this

Unfortunately, some forums have restrictions to prevent spam or require certain user levels before allowing URL sharing.

NB Neither do we need to SHOUT :wink:

How to search only on entire Application Manuals (not including Unix manual pages) - note the checkbox

I am using Gnome Fedora 41. When I press F1 in Okular, it opens the documentation URL on Browser. So your solution is not working for me.

That would be better addressed with Fedora. Some distros seem to use HTML docs, others use the Help Center application. There are valid reasons for these sort of choices a distro may make.

This is because F1 is linked to Gnome Help on Gnome desktop.

Please let us access single page HTML documentation for KDE applications.

GNU project does this.

So this is a Gnome issue, or a Fedora issue perhaps?

What’s interesting is that there’s no ‘Search’ field in the online handbook… so I guess it’s a valid question after all…

Why no search?
