Many TeX programmers provide more or less detailed manuals for
their programs or packages. They are usually available as .dvi,
.ps, .pdf, .html or plain text files (sometimes included in the
.sty files instead of a separate documentation file) and can be
accessed with this browser, which is simply an interface to find a
documentation more easily. It starts the respective viewer for
reading the selected documentation making use of a database file
which contains the path entries according to the current teTeX
texmf/doc structure; additional usage of a system-wide local and
of individual user texmf trees with corresponding databases is also
possible.
The documentations are grouped in several categories shown in the
main window; pressing one of its buttons lists all documentations
belonging to this topic.
The topic window lets you select one documentation file, view or
send it to the default printer. By right-clicking on the selected
item you get the complete path of the file.
The search button of the main window allows you to search the
database for a string; it does not search file names. Enter the
string and hit <Return> to start the search or <Control-c> to
cancel. Just hitting <Return> without typing something in will
show the full list of files in the database.
Defaults for the documentation root directory, the viewers, the
converters, certain options and the printer are set in the global
configuration file $sysrc.
However, each user can put a copy of it as .texdocrc into his home
directory to modify them according to his needs; modification or
generation of ~/.texdocrc can also be done with the Settings menu.
Additionally, the settings can be changed temporarily with this
menu.

The following key shortcuts are defined for use with the browser:
  <Ctrl-q>	Quit browser
  <Ctrl-m>	Raise the Main window to the foreground
  <Ctrl-s>	Search a keyword in database (case insensitive)
  <Ctrl-c>	Cancel/close subwindow or search entry widget
  <Ctrl-v>	View selected document (topic windows)
  <Ctrl-p>	Print selected document (topic windows)
  <Ctrl-t>	Open settings menu
  <Ctrl-k>	Kill fatal error message window (same as
		<Ctrl-q>)
  <Ctrl-h>	Open this help
  <Return>	Equivalent to button press;
		OK in selection menu and search
  <Tab>		Next/previous widget

There are the following command line options:
  -a		autostart viewer if a listbox of search results
		contains only one item; can also be set in a
		configuration file
  -v		disable suppression of viewer messages sent to
		stderr and of certain permanent message popup
		windows, in case this was not set in a
		configuration file; default: off

Some more information is available in the manpage of texdoctk.
