So then your previous reply to me simply adds to the problem....suggesting that the wiki must be used for documentation. The wiki help content is locked in a wiki database nobody can access or export. It is also in a format nobody can read. And lastly NOT available offline. > 1> Add chm building in the release build process for each platform > (deb, rpm, windows, mac, etc) > or > 2> Put some latest pre-compiled chm in our svn.

So does that mean the Lazarus Team has finally made a decision on what help format and viewer to officially use with Lazarus? Thus using CHM help as the default help format for Lazarus IDE and Lazarus LCL, and LHelp as the viewer? Maybe an official email stating that users should stop adding help to the Wiki and rather start editing the "raw" CHM help content. Sorry for my ignorance, but like you have *.tex files for LaTeX, xml for fpdoc, *.ipf for INF help.... what is the documentation source files for CHM? Also what Linux/Windows/MacOSX CHM help source editors exist so the BIG port from Wiki-to-CHM can begin? -- Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://fpgui.sourceforge.net -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
