Introduction:
-------------
Subsurface was started because of a lack of viable dive log software
on Linux. It turns out that the resulting software was easily ported
to Windows and Mac, but it clearly is a native Linux program first.
The program is under active development and at version 3.0 it is
already very usable for divers with supported dive-computers.
Subsurface is an open source divelog program that runs on Windows, Mac
and Linux. It was started because of a lack of viable dive log
software on Linux. It then turned out that the resulting software was
fairly easily ported to Windows and Mac and today great effort is put
into making it a viable application on all three platforms.
In this manual the Suunto Vyper will be used for all examples.
The program is under active development and at version 3.0 it compares
favorably to many other programs in this market.
While the list of supported dive computers is very long, in this
manual the Suunto Vyper will be used for all examples.
