I need to correct myself, the proper uri these days is help:yourappname. And I may have gotten your question wrong.. To launch the uri just use something like |gtk_show_uri but then the C# equivalent. An example for this can be found in gedit source [5]. ~infirit [5] https://git.gnome.org/browse/gedit/tree/gedit/gedit-app.c#n221 | _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
