Hi Hannie,

If you're working on a file that will be part of (for example) gedit, and
you've cloned the gedit repository, the documentation would be in
gedit/help/C.  You'd place your new "page" file in the gedit/help/C
directory, and then do "yelp gedit/help/C" and it will launch all of the
gedit help, including the new page file that you just wrote.

You can also launch the individual page by doing 'yelp
gedit/help/C/my-new-page.page'

If you keep yelp running, it will continually refresh your updated 'page'
every time that you save it.

I hope this helps!

Jim
