About These Arrows

Throughout this book, and throughout the Missing Manual series, you'll find sentences like this one: " Open the System folder Libraries Fonts folder." Thats shorthand for a much longer instruction that directs you to open three nested folders in sequence, like this: "On your hard drive, you'll find a folder called System. Open that. Inside the System folder window is a folder called Libraries; double-click it to open it. Inside that folder is yet another one called Fonts. Double-click to open it, too."

Similarly, this kind of arrow shorthand helps to simplify the business of choosing commands in menus , such as Dock Position on Left, as shown in Figure I-1.

Figure I-1. In this book, arrow notations help to simplify folder and menu instructions. For example, "Choose Dock Position on Left is a more compact way of saying, "From the a menu, choose Dock; from the submenu that than appears, choose Position on Left," as shown here.
