[ I apologise if I sound frustrated with you, but it probably is because I am. ] * fpdoc is well documented. So usage should not be a problem. * LCL, fpGUI etc all come with easy scripts to generate the class documentation in various formats. * RTL, LCL docs come as pre-built binary help for your convenience, but you can build them yourself too. That too is documented. * Docview (binary release download) includes the docview.inf help file, describing in detail every feature of docview (thus help on help). It even includes a section called "For Authors and Developers", where it again explains in detail how to use the IPF Compiler to compile your IPF help source into binary INF help files. THIS IS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE!
