Yes, this is the status quo, and also the thing I would like to change - that the WikiHelp would become the 'root' source for help. My goal is to make the work for the Help authors as easy as possible - so that they do not have to learn the help XML format (or the tricks & macros that make it editable from LibO). Of course, for the other elements like the UI, it still has to work as you explained - LibO sources as the source of the texts for translations. > > (Actually, I think that's the question currently being discussed in > > this thread... > > Nope, the question is here on how to make helpcontent (that is usually > shipped with the product, i.e. what you get when you press <F1>) also > available on the web (as the current windows installer doesn't include > help at all) When we have the WikiHelp set up, I'd like to turn the problem around - how to generate a good off-line help (that you'd be able to include in the installation) out of the Wiki version :-) [Luckily, there are tools out there to turn the Wiki markup into Docbook, and other formats.] Regards, Kendy _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
