Starting Sun WorkShop

Once you have installed Sun WorkShop and added it to your command path, you can start it by typing workshop & at a command prompt.

If this is the first time you have used WorkShop, the About WorkShop window appears in front of the WorkShop main window. If you have not registered, take a few minutes and do so. If you have not read the Overview, now might be a good time to do so.

You can set colors and fonts used in the windows of WorkShop and its integrated text editor, including the foreground and background colors of windows, and colors used to highlight various types of text in the editor windows. You can also set other types of resources, such as a blinking cursor and the automatic wrapping of text in Sun WorkShop windows. For information on changing the default resources of Sun WorkShop in both CDE and non-CDE environments, see Appendix A, Setting Sun WorkShop Resources."
