USER DEFINABLE BUTTONS: The very top of this header bar is made up of nine “smart” buttons which you may define to launch any books or applications present on your Newton by tapping and holding on the desired button until the 'squeak' is heard and the form appears. Complete this form and the button will change accordingly. These buttons let you jump quickly among references. A button can also be set to display a menu of all applications on your Newton. 
SPECIAL USE: Tap on the Special Use button and you are returned to the title page. This button will have additional functionality in version 1.1..
PAGE HISTORY: Tap on the Page History button and you are presented with a listing of up to the last 22 pages you have recently seen in the current book.

TABULAR VIEW: Tapping the double headed arrow while viewing a disease monograph will pull up a set of 6 tabs along the right side of the screen. Tapping these tabs will display the specific section of the monograph desired. Click the box at the lower right section of the tabular screen to return to normal mode.
KEY SEARCH: Tap on the key search button and a search window appears showing a list of topics located above a keyboard.Tap the first letters of the topic you want to find on the keyboard. Once you see the name of the topic you want, tap on it and you will jump to that section. If the item is followed by a diamond, a submenu will appear. If after selecting from a submenu you want to see the list of subtopics again, simply tap on the Location Header and the list of subtopics will be presented again.
A-Z SEARCH: Tap on the A-Z button and the top bar of buttons on your Newton screen is replaced with the letters of the alphabet. Tap on the first letter of the topic you wish to find and you will be presented with the list of topics which begin with that letter. If [--Next--] appears at the bottom of the topic list, then there are more topics to be listed than will fit on the Newton screen. Tap on the word [--Next--] to move to the next screen of topics.
Similarly, if [--Previous--] appears at the top of the list of topics you can tap on it and move back to the previous list of topics. When you find the topic you want, simply tap on the name and you will jump immediately to the first page of that section.
