Hi Peter,

Ah - I see. I've installed the help authoring extension, and there's a new
menu item. But now the Documentation/Help wiki article tells me that I have
to set up a document root, which is in my clone of the help git repository -
which of course I don't have. And as I don't know git I can't get much
further!
I'm closing down now for the night - so I won't be able to answer until
tomorrow.
You can download the current (master, upcoming version LO 5.1) help
files from http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/pre-releases/src/
7-Zip can unpack it. It first makes a tar folder and therein a tar file,
which you then have to unpack. You will get a folder "helpcontent2".
When you do not have prepared the Cygwin-environment and do not clone
via git, then you need to make a backup of the file you want to work on
prior to your work.
If you do not know how to make a unified diff file yourself, then you
attach both the original and the changed file to the issue in Bugzilla.
That way a committer can generate a diff-file and upload it to Gerrit
for review.
For starting this a suitable way, but in the long term you need to make
a Cygwin-environment. Find a description on
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/BuildingOnWindows
[I have used that way, not the "lode" approach, mentioned there.]
Kind regards
Regina
