Hi Massimo,

Sorry for the late reply, i was away. i did download hbide, than you, no time 
yet to investigate.
About harbour's documentation i did post a message with my thoughts, replying 
to Mr. Czerpak. (unfortunately that reply went wrongly to a new thread -my 
fault and my yahoo's mailing client.)

you say you need "english people" with harbour knowledge to write 
documentation. by "english people" i think you  mean volunteers speaking (or 
better, writing) English, and you are right!

However, as has already been pointed out, most of the harbour's documentation 
is already written and lies into several texts -old and new ones. If this is 
true, then the need is not "English writers" but a
small team of "collectors", who will find a way to extract/collect these pieces 
of documentation, edit them (in cooperation to core-developers to avoid 
mistakes) and to incorporate them into a flexible and easy handled help system 
or to put it more "technologically descriptive" we need a "HELP MACHINE", with 
an easy to plug "slot", which would attract harbour people to feed this 
machine, bringing their contributions (documentation text, samples, etc.).


P.S.: I really wonder, how can the harbour users to make use (without 
documentation) of this very developed and so much enriched compiler, as harbour 
has already become after all those many additions and enhancements that have 
been done by the unbelievable creative developers (czerzpak, szakats and co.) 
during last months. I think that very few of users utilize the total of 
harbour's capabilities and features, not to mention that this documentation 
lack is an 'inhibitory factor' for new users to come,  but maybe  i am wrong 
and it's only me that have difficulty to follow the whole process.

regards,

---
Pete
