What dock Can Do for You

The new version of dock can be used in many ways to aid in computational tasks. The following table, Table 1 lists how the new features can be combined together to accomplish different tasks. Only the basic tasks will be discussed in the Getting Started section. Please refer to the Advanced Techniques section (or follow the links contained with the table) for a discussion of each feature and refer to the Reference Manual for a listing of all associated parameters.
