------------------------- I d e a L i s t - H e l p ------------------------- Author ------ Christoph Bartholme, Ettlinger Straže 37, D-76137 Karlsruhe, Germany Purpose ------- IdeaList-Help offers on-line help for IdeaList V3.5 (PRG- and ACC-version). Why an external program? Some other applications have such help functions integrated! Well, if you do not need this help support, there will be no RAM wasted on an unused feature. So if you are an IdeaList professional already, or prefer to work with the detailed manual that you can print out, there is no need to read any further. Otherwise it is useful to get a hint for every button or menu item at runtime, isn't it? Constraints ----------- IdeaList-Help runs at all resolution modes and uses around 25 KBytes of RAM. Installation ------------ The program can be used either as ACC or as PRG. There are three ways to use it: 1) Copy IL_HELP.ACC to the main directory and reboot. Thus you get an online help for ILIST.ACC as well as for IDEALIST.PRG. 2) Copy IL_HELP.ACC to anywhere you want, rename it to IL_HELP.PRG and launch it with a double-click. This gives you on-line help for the ILIST accessory you installed earlier. 3) Copy IL_HELP.ACC to the directory of IDEALIST.PRG and rename it to IL_HELP.PRG. Now if you work under MultiTOS or MagiC the on-line help is launched automatically by IdeaList itself and cancelled at the end. Usage ----- To get a help text while working with IdeaList, just press the key in addition to the mouse click: This opens a window containing a help text. With the window gets closed, too. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
