applications.</p>

<p>There are two ways to get DisOrder.</p>
<p>There is no Windows support (although the web interface can be
used from Windows computers).</p>

<p>The easiest way to get a DisOrder login is to access the web
interface and set one up using that. To do this,
installed. You should then be able to select the <b>Login</b>
option at the top of the screen.</p>
- <p

+ <p

<p>Go to the <b>New Users</b> form and enter the username you want
to use, your email address, and a password. The password must be
displayed on the screen). When you press <b>Register</b>, you will
be sent an email requiring you to confirm your registration.</p>

<p>Your login won't be active until you click on this URL.</p>

<p>Having done this you could of course just use the web interface.
But since this is the manual for Disobedience, it is assumed that
you want to take advantage of its more convenient design and extra
features.</p>
- <h2>1.4 Starting Disobedience</h2>
+ <h2><a name=starting>1.4 Starting Disobedience</a></h2>
<p>On Debian systems it should be possible to find Disobedience in
the menu system:</p>
- <p
align=middle><img src="disobedience-debian-menu.png"></p>
+ <p
class=image><img src="disobedience-debian-menu.png"></p>
<p>On other systems you will have to start it from the command line
by typing its name at a command prompt. You can (optionally) use
an <tt>&</tt> suffix to stop it tying up your terminal.</p>
- <p
align=middle><img src="disobedience-terminal.png"></p>
+ <p
class=image><img src="disobedience-terminal.png"></p>
<p>(Please note that Disobedience shouldn't write any messages to
the terminal. If it does that probably indicates a bug, which
should <a href="http://code.google.com/p/disorder/issues/list">be
reported</a>.)</p>
- <h2>1.5 Initial Login</h2>
+ <h2><a name=login>1.5 Initial Login</a></h2>
<p>The first time you run Disobedience it won't know what server to
connect to, your username or your password, and will therefore
display a login box.</p>
- <p
align=middle><img src="login.png"></p>
+ <p
class=image><img src="login.png"></p>
<p>If Disobedience is running on a different computer to the
server, then you should make sure the <b>Remote</b> box is ticked
<p>Once you have logged in successfuly, Disobedience will remember
these login settings, so it should not be necessary to enter them
again. If you need to change them for any reason, you can either
- select the Server > Login option to bring the login window back, or
- (if you prefer), edit the file <tt>~/.disorder/passwd</tt>
+ select the <b>Server > Login</b> option to bring the login window
+ back, or (if you prefer), edit the file <tt>~/.disorder/passwd</tt>
directly.</p>
