Do note that the system menu is where you'll find all of the system, as well as GNONE specific settings. You can also right-click the top and bottom taskbars (here called "panels"), to customise them. You may also wish to double-click on the "Start Here" icon on the desktop.
 
== Important Applications ==
 
=== Nautilus ===
 
Nautilus is your graphical file manager, the GNONE default. It's fairly standard but it has some neat features such as:
 
* Tabbed Browsing
* Bookmarks
* Folder backgrounds, and file emblems.
* Right-click Terminal Access
 
=== GNOME Terminal ===
 
Speaking of, your terminal (emulator) here is the creatively named GNOME terminal. This is again fairly standard but features an easily customisable appearance by going to "Edit > Profiles...". As with all unix-like OSes, you'll probably spend a fair amount of time here. I should note that <code>xterm</code> is also available if you need it.
 
=== Text Editors ===
 
There are three text editors included by default, including one graphical. These are: <code>gedit, vi(m)</code> and <code>nano</code>. Your are most likely familiar with both Vi and Nano, although be prepared for features to be missing as these ''are'' very old versions. Gedit on the other hand is a simple text editor. Both line numbers and a different colour scheme can be enabled in "Edit > Preferences" if desired.
