I found out now that I have to first put the cursor on the identifier to
document ;-)
When I do this for CopyFile I get:
------------
No valid FPDOC path
The unit D:\Programme\lazarus\fpc\2.6.1\source\rtl\win32\windows.pp is
part of the FPC souces, but the corresponding fpdoc xml file was not found.
Either you have not yet added the fpcdocs directory to the search path
or the unit is not yet documented. The fpdoc files for the FPC sources
can be downloaded from: http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/fpcdocs/trunk
------------
When I go to "http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/fpcdocs/trunk"; it is empty.
BTW: It's a shame that I had to type all the above text from the message
window again because I could not copy/paste it. My own programs use
"MessageBox" for such messges and the result *can* be copied with
Ctrl+C. Why not from the IDE messages?

Exactly. Therefore I was confused to see this as an answer for the topic
of missing documentation :-)
