Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by presenting Windows-specific instructions and tools (such as Internet Explorer and psexec) before Linux equivalents, and by providing detailed steps for Windows (including launching IE for proxy configuration) while Linux instructions are less detailed. Windows paths and tools are mentioned explicitly, whereas Linux instructions are more generic and lack step-by-step guidance. There are no Linux-specific examples for setting environment variables or editing ProxyInfo.conf, and Windows-centric terminology (e.g., Local System account) is used.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux-specific step-by-step instructions for configuring proxy settings, including commands to edit /etc/profile or /etc/environment.
- Include examples of setting environment variables on Linux (e.g., using export in bash or editing files with nano/vi).
- Present Linux and Windows instructions in parallel, giving equal detail and prominence to both platforms.
- Avoid referencing Windows-only tools (such as Internet Explorer and psexec) without offering Linux alternatives.
- Clarify Linux file paths and permissions for ProxyInfo.conf, and provide sample commands for creating and editing the file.
