<h2>Manual</h2>

<p>
Here is the  
<?php htmlshow("ProofGeneral-3.1/doc/ProofGeneral_toc.html","Proof General user manual","Proof General Manual") ?> in HTML form, as included in the distribution.
<br>
For printing you can download the 
<?php download_link("ProofGeneral-3.1/doc/ProofGeneral.ps.gz", "gzipped ps file") ?> 
(recommended) or the 
<?php download_link("ProofGeneral-3.1/doc/ProofGeneral.pdf", "pdf file") ?>.
</p>

<p>
The manual (in HTML and Info formats), as well as other documentation,
is included in the <?php link_root("download","download.") ?> When
running Proof General the manual is available from the "Proof General"
menu.  It should also appear in the system Info pages.
