Hi Jordi, because of the reported WIN98-bug (14618) which occured in Help.java I just diffed this file with version 1.6. Thereby I found something which I guess is a result of your recent separation of tasks.
Up to version 1.7 a user got notified if an error occured during the load-process of the help. Yet you took out this fragment because it would cause a GUI-call which should not be made from a core-class (at least I guess that's the reason). I think this behavious is correct since I strongly support a separation of gui and core-functionality. Yet shouldn't there be some kind of notification? Maybe a thrown exception which the gui-part would be responsible for to catch it? After all that's what you would expect from a client-class, if it cannot fulfill the requested service, isn't it? Of course this would mean quite some work on the gui-side. I haven't searched around wether other core-classes have similar "issues". If so, I would recommend a enhancement-request so that these issues do not get lost over time. Do you (or anyone else) agree? Though I guess right now there are some more urgent things to do...
