No I didn't. There is a helpsystem (for all help) abstraction inside Lazarus. docview bypasses that. This means that having docview and some other helpfile type can't be searched together, while in the case of CHM it can. I'm not sure that is a good thing though. > that is just a stupid point to raise, because Lazarus IDE help is ONLY > available online in the wiki site. So neither LHelp (or any other CHM > viewer) or DocView (INF viewer) is much use there - until Lazarus IDE > actually uses a help format better suited than the wiki site. The wiki help used to be downloadable using a tool, but that failed after a wiki engine update (or some other anti-bot/spam measure in the engine/webserver) Otherwise I would have already transformed the help into CHM. _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
