Network Configuration
“DNS and other traffic from the Workstation gets forced by the firewall to use the anonymity network.”
``- which firewall, workstation’s or gateway’s?
The gateway’s.
“Shared page in chapter “about package manager”.”
``- can’t find the referenced chapter by that name. Could ‘package manager’ above be made into a link, please?
Firewall
“Add a firewall, which only allows traffic the anonymizer to connect to the internet.”
``- Huh? “Which denies internet access to any Workstation traffic not going through the anonymizer.”? | “Which only permits traffic going through the anonymizer to reach the internet.”?
Add a firewall, which only permits traffic of the anonymizer to reach
the internet.

Help file
I won’t get to rework this anytime soon.
“User can type “whonix”.”
``- Perhaps a desktop icon (‘Quick Whonix Help’) running this would be useful. I had not tracked the presence of this command, and (D’OH!) seeing it now … I very much wish I had.
There is a Whonix documentation link already in the start menu [and on
the desktop for Non-Qubes-Whonix] that links to
Whonix Documentation.
Typing “whonix” is not that useful at the moment anyhow. And more for
the geeks. Too confusing to making it more accessible.
