How to use this document
This is a sample document to introduce you to the feel of a Trellix-style document map. The little squares represent the pages in the document. The page you are currently viewing is indicated by a yellow "you are here" icon. You can follow links in the page body itself normally by clicking on the underlined words, or you can click on the page icons in the map. In many browsers, pointing to a page icon with the mouse will cause the title of the page it represents to be displayed, either right near the mouse-pointer or in the status-line display.

When viewed over the Internet, the display of the map with the correct "you are here" icon may take a few seconds. To get a feel for the way a good map operates, click on 3 or 4 pages in the map to get them in your browser's cache, and then go back and forth between them by clicking on them again.
