Installer
| Barra d'eines: | ||
| Ubicació: | /boot/system/apps/Installer | |
| Preferències: | none |
The Installer is used to copy Haiku onto another volume. You can use it to clone your currently running Haiku - with all installed software and all data and settings. And of course you use it for the initial installation after booting from install CD or USB drive, see the online Installation Guide.
Upon launch Installer displays a start window with important information. It's not a mindless EULA you're used to click away in the blink of an eye, it states:
This is beta-quality software. Make backups or suffer the consequences!
The Installer needs a prepared partition. You can use DriveSetup to create and format a partition, but cannot yet resize existing partitions. For that you'll have to use a GParted LiveCD or a similar tool for now.
- Haiku can be added manually to the bootmanager GRUB. How that is done exactly is available as an online guide.
Once you acknowledged with , you're presented with the main window:
In the first pop-up menu you choose the source for the installation. It can be a currently installed Haiku or can come from an install CD or USB drive, etc.

### PoorMan Configuration Example (XML)
Source: https://git.haiku-os.org/userguide.git/tree/userguide/pt_PT/applications/poorman
This XML snippet represents the structure of a configuration file for the PoorMan web server. It includes settings for the site, logging, and advanced options like maximum connections.
```xml
PoorMan
| Deskbar: | ||
| Localização: | /boot/system/apps/PoorMan | |
| Definições: | ~/config/settings/PoorMan Settings |
PoorMan is a nice little webserver that's extremely easy to set up. Naturally it doesn't offer any advanced features like other heavy duty server software, it's after all only a poor man's webserver.
Upon its first launch, PoorMan asks for the folder that is about to be served to the web. If you go with the , a new folder /boot/home/public_html is created for you. As a start page a HTML file named by default index.html has to be present there.
PoorMan presents itself with a simple console that logs its activity. Then, there's status information if the server is running, which folder is being served, and a hit counter. Settings are changed with :
The settings panel is divided into three tabs:
In you can select another folder to serve, enter another start page and have the option to send a file listing if the start page isn't present.
lets you de/activate logging to the console or optionally to a separate logfile.
The tab holds the setting for the maximum simultaneous connections.
The menu items of the console window are all self-explanatory. With them you can e.g. save (parts) of the console output, clear the console or logging file and start/stop the server or clear the hit counter.
``` -------------------------------- ### HTML Structure for Haiku OS User Guide Page Source: https://git.haiku-os.org/userguide.git/tree/userguide/en/desktop-applets/powerstatus This snippet represents the basic HTML structure of a Haiku OS user guide page, including meta tags, stylesheets, navigation, and content layout. It is a standard template used for documentation pages. ```html
PowerStatus
| Deskbar: | ||
| Location: | /boot/system/apps/PowerStatus | |
| Settings: | ~/config/settings/PowerStatus settings |
PowerStatus shows information about the battery level, so it's only useful on mobile computers. If not yet running, launching the applet will ask if it should open in window mode or live in the Deskbar. In window mode you're able to resize the icon by resizing the window and use the Replicant handle to drag it to the Desktop.
Wherever installed, it's operated via a right-click context menu.
Note: PowerStatus requires a working ACPI support.
The context menu offers these options:
| Shows battery level in percent or remaining time. | ||
| Shows icon of the applet. | ||
| Switch between showing battery level in percent or remaining time ( has to be active). | ||
| Shows the extended battery info window. | ||
| Shows the About window. | ||
| Quits the PowerStatus applet. |

LaunchBox
| Deskbar: | ||
| Percorso: | /boot/system/apps/LaunchBox | |
| Impostazioni: | ~/config/settings/LaunchBox/* |
One or more LaunchBox applets can be started to organize shortcuts to your favorite applications or documents. You decide if each is shown on all or just the current workspace. They can also serve to quickly open a document in a specific application. For example, you could drag & drop a HTML file onto a text editor in a LaunchBox to open it in the editor instead of its preferred application, the browser.
All options are reached from the context menu:
| Adds an empty button. | |||||||||
| Empties a button. | |||||||||
| Removes a button. | |||||||||
| Hovering the mouse over an icon shows a tooltip with the file's name and, in case of an application, its short description if it differs from its name (see topic FileTypes). With this menu item you can customize the description for this tooltip. | |||||||||
