RE: flexfax: fax viewer

["E. Alex Bungener" <luvcapecod@bigfoot.com>]

Thanks for the comments, but my business runs on my linux box and I 
don't have the time or hardly the mental energy to start learning all 
the idiosyncrasies of Linux and how to manipulate it. This a business 
related fax that is important that I view it. I quick command to bring 
up another viewer or two is what I am looking for.

try reading really reading some of the wonderful man pages
that unix is (in)famous for.

i'd guess you could try to click on an xman icon or menu item,
or try, at a command line prompt xman or even man.

bear in mind your environment (e.g. variables) will likely be
minimal. the better man pages tell you about env var you can set
to control programs. you might consider a book or two that describe
how to use one of the many shells (command line interpreters)
available on unix (and its workalikes). unix in a nutshell by
o'reilly is an excellent reference, but less suited to the newbe.

good luck, and i think you'll find it more rewarding than a dos
command line.
