through the document by using the up and down arrow keys, the Page Up 
and Page Down keys or clicking in the scroll bar on the right hand 
side of the window.

%C%%H2%Once PipeDream is loaded

PipeDream is loaded when the blue PipeDream icon is visible on the icon 
bar at the bottom of your screen. To start a new window click the left 
button of the mouse on the PipeDream icon.

Pressing the middle, or Menu button, of the mouse whilst the blue 
pointer arrow is over a PipeDream window will give you the top-level 
PipeDream menu.

Pressing the Menu button on the PipeDream icon gives you a further list 
of options with which you may experiment.

A short help file is available by pressing the F1 key. This will help 
you to get started.

%C%%H2%Once you have a new window

When you have a new window, you can start typing. To type text, as you 
would in a letter, just type away. To enter a number into the 
spreadsheet, press the F2 key, and type in your expression. When you 
press RETURN, the result of the calculation will be displayed in the 
slot.

%C%%H2%Long and Short Menus

When you start PipeDream, the short menus are switched on. This makes 
the menus clearer and more readable. To access the complete range of 
PipeDream commands, select long menus by clicking the left button of 
the mouse on the "Short Menus" option in the "Files" menu.

On the long menus, the function key equivalent of the commands is also 
shown, if there is one.

saving, printing and searching disabled.

%C%%H2%Example files

There are several example files in the "documents" directory on the 
demonstration disk. You can load a PipeDream file into PipeDream by 
double-clicking on the icon of the file. PipeDream files have the 
PipeDream icon displayed by their side.

of the amazing documents you can create with PipeDream 3.

%C%%H2%A final note

When using the demonstration version of PipeDream, please remember that 
you don't have the reference manual available. The reference manual 
includes a full step-by-step tutorial and a large reference section. 
There is obviously no space here to explain the finer features and 
facilities in PipeDream - you will only get the full benefit by working 
with the manual, but the demonstration should give you some idea of 
PipeDream's impressive capabilities.
