You'll find as you go along that there's more than one way to do things, and you can pick whichever method you like best. &USAGE-MAINWINDOW; &USAGE-EXEC-SUMMARY; &USAGE-MAIL; &USAGE-CONTACT; &USAGE-CALENDAR; &USAGE-SYNC; &USAGE-PRINT; Configuring and Managing Evolution Evolution is highly configurable. Usually, when developers say that, they mean that they didn't test it out thoroughly and have left it to other programmers to "configure" themselves a working system. In the case of Evolution, "configurable" means what it ought to. It means that, while you can expect the program to work perfectly well in its default settings, it's also easy to alter its behavior in a wide variety of ways, so that it fits your needs exactly. This part of the book will describe that process, from the quickest glimpse of the Setup Assistant to an in-depth tour of the preferences dialogs. &CONFIG-SETUPASSIST; &CONFIG-PREFS; &CONFIG-SYNC; Comprehensive Menu reference The following reference covers all, or nearly all, of the menus and menu commands that Evolution has to offer you. &MENUREF; &APX-GLOSS; &APX-BUGS; &APX-AUTHORS;
