Chapter 3 Using your Raspberry Pi^43
THE OFFICIAL RASPBERRY PI BEGINNER’S GUIDE
5 Figure 3-12: Loading the Raspberry Pi website in Chromium
The first time you load Chromium, it may bring up several tabs along the top of the window.
To switch to a different tab, click on it; to close a tab without closing Chromium itself, click the
cross on the right-hand edge of the tab you want to close. To open a new tab, which is a handy
way of having multiple websites open without having to juggle multiple Chromium windows,
either click on the tab button to the right of the last tab in the list, or hold down the CTRL key
on the keyboard and press the T key before letting go of CTRL.
When you’re finished with Chromium, click the close button at the top-right of the window.
The File Manager
Files you save – whether they’re programs or poems you’ve written, videos you’ve created, or
images you’ve downloaded from a website – all go into your home directory. To see the home
directory, click on the raspberry icon again to bring up the menu, move the mouse pointer to
select Accessories, then click on File Manager to load it (Figure 3-13).
