IMPORTANT: You are now using Hyperwords Server, which works on this web server. If you install Hyperwords for Firefox, Chrome or Safari you will have a slightly different experience in that you can customize the menu to your liking.
If you would like to license Hyperwords Server for your website, you will be able to fully customize what visitors experience.
Results Minibrowser
When you click on a reference you get the results in a small 'minibrowser':

• To dismiss the minibrowser pane: click in the small 'x' on the right in the black bar or anywhere outside the frame.
• To view the contents in a new tab click on the name or the round icon on the left in the black bar.
• 'Search' results are in a new tab since we expect you may want to follow the search results.
• You can change this in the Preferences (see below).
Customize Add-On Only - not for Hyperwords Server
Click on the grey dots ... at the bottom of the menu to change the behavior of Hyperwords:

The menu will then expand into Edit Mode (note, the commands are active in this mode so if you only want to use a command very rarely, you can use it directly in this mode without turning it on first):
• Turn commands/services On by clicking the empty 'o' bullet or Off by clicking the filled bullet '•'.
• Change your preferences by clicking 'Preferences'.
• To add almost any search to Hyperwords, go to the search page you want to add then right/ctrl click inside the search window and choose 'Add To Hyperwords..."
Search Toolbar Add-On Only - not for Hyperwords Server
You now have Hyperwords as your search system in your search bar. Enter text and click to access all the Hyperwords features.
If you hit 'enter' twice you will get a default search, just like you had before - usually Google.
TOP TIP: If you hit 'shift-enter' you will automatically be taken to the top search result.
If you don't want Hyperwords in your search, then click on the Hyperwords icon (the round dot) and choose the search engine you would prefer).

Share Buttons in Toolbar Add-On Only - not for Hyperwords Server
Hyperwords provides three optional Share buttons which you can turn on by going to the 'View' menu in Firefox, then 'Toolbars' and finally 'Customize...' Here you can drag the icons to your toolbar). They are email, Facebook and Twitter:

Keyboard Phrases for Speed Users
Keyboard shortcuts let you type in what you want, without taking the time to mouse around. It's usually the first letter of the word/command name. Fx: 'rw' for References/Wikipedia.
Google Docs Add-On Only - not for Hyperwords Server
You can choose to have Hyperwords On or Off in Google docs. To set, go the 'Preferences'.
Firefox / Chrome / Safari / Server
Most of what's described in this user guide applies to all of the Hyperwords Systems with the following main exceptions: Hyperwords Server cannot be edited by the user, there is no toolbar search or share buttons.
