2.2.5 DODS Help

This menu allows you to see several short hints addressing frequently asked questions. You can also select DODS GUI User Manual, which will start an html browser on your system, reading a hypertext version of this document. Your Matlab file, docopt.m must be properly configured to use the appropriate browser. See your system administrator if it is not set correctly. Similarly, you can edit the browsopt.m file (part of the OPeNDAP Matlab GUI) to control the URL submitted to the browser. The default is to read the copy of the documentation on the DODS server.

If you have a local copy of the hypertext documentation, you may want to refer to that copy instead, to make browsing the text faster.
