* Added more "up-to-top-of-page" symbol/links to h1/h2 headings where appropriate
* Changed "up-to-top-of-page" symbol to a 90° rotated bullet graphic of the new website (Good idea, Jorge.). Increased its size to 32x32 so it's easier to aim for. * Mentioned new ~/config/boot/launch/ folder in filesystem-layout.html. * Updated Workspaces screenshot due to renamed options (Thanks Ryan.) * Moved magnify.png to the /en/images/apps-images/ subfolder as it's not totally language neutral. git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@32754 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96

<p>Before diving into all the applications that come with Haiku, let's have a more detailed look at how to install and uninstall programs you downloaded somewhere, for example from a site mentioned on the <a href="../../welcome/welcome.html#software">Welcome</a> page.

<p>Haiku software always comes as an archive. Most of the time it's a ZIP, some old BeOS packages come in Software Valet's PKG format. Software Valet was able to automatically execute installation scripts, so after double-clicking you just select a destination folder and everything's taken care of.<br />

If it's a ZIP archive, double-clicking opens <span class="app">Expander</span> where you also set the destination and unpack it. As explained in the topic <a href="filesystem-layout.html">Filesystem layout</a>, that destination is either</p>

<p>If the installation was done with an install script, chances are, there's an uninstall script as well. In that case, double-click it and you're done.<br />
|

Otherwise, uninstalling is simply done by deleting the application's folder.</p>
|
||||
<p>This, of course, leaves back possible configuration files in your <span class="path">~/config/settings</span> folder. This may be on purpose, if you want to keep those settings in case you'll install the program again in the future. Also, when the installation involved those "<span class="cli">drag [filename] here...</span>" folders, those files are also left behind.</p>
|
||||
<p>One method to quickly get to all the app's files is to do a quick query for a significant part of the application's name. This will reveal the app's binary, its installation folder and its settings as well as possible links in the Deskbar etc. Simply select all relevant files and delete them.</p>

Applications that are not usually launched by a double-click on a data file (e.g. ShowImage for image files) can be found in the <span class="menu">Applications</span> menu of the Deskbar.</p>
