For Xojo, since I sometimes use older versions, I usually choose the offline (local) version. Since the online version is always for the latest IDE and it requires an Internet connection (often not getting an immediate reply, also), I don't see much reason to connect around the world to read something unrelated to my product if the local version is better. > You can always refer to the PDF or html files of the specific version. For MBS, there can't be a “built-in” window like Xojo (at least, I guess). If it were the case, I'd happily browse a MBS local documentation from within the IDE. However, looking for the MBS documentation file on my hard disks is harder (I actually have never bothered with other folders than the one containing the plugin files). >> Indeed, both are useful.

I thought it was just your choice, a preference. Glad I was wrong. _______________________________________________ mbsplugins@monkeybreadsoftware.info mailing list %(list_address)s https://ml-cgn08.ispgateway.de/mailman/listinfo/mbsplugins_monkeybreadsoftware.info
