                                     HELP

    PC-TYPE+ supports three different levels of HELP.

    LEVEL 1 - the HELP key - F1

    This level allows you to browse through the different HELP panels to
    find out how to perform a specific function.  The Esc Key will always
    return you to the editing session and F1 will always place you back at
    the main HELP menu.  By pressing the keys "a" through "n", you can
    move from HELP panel to HELP panel.

    All of these HELP screens are within PC-TYPE+ itself, so you need not
    worry about carrying around extra files.

    Press F1 - then a,b,c...  and finally the Esc key to get a feel for
    this level of HELP.

                              Press the PgDn Key

    LEVEL 2 - the Function Group keys F7 and F8

    While HELP Level 1 is for information only, LEVEL 2 will let you
    perform the function you are looking for.  However, not all functions
    are available at this level.

    As with Level 1, the Esc key will return you to your editing session.

    When you press F7, you may either press the indicated function key to
    perform the desired operation, or, if the second column contains a key
    specification, then you may alternatively press that key
    specification.  That second column contains the actual keystroke you
    could have used in your text area without going to F7.  (F1 F2 and F3
    in the F7 menu will bring up additional help menus from which to
    select more options.

    Again, this information is within PC-TYPE+ itself.

                              Press the PgDn Key

    LEVEL 3 - the HELP COMMAND

    You are currently in the third level of HELP, so if you got to here it
    needs little discussion.  This level of help requires that the HELP
    files provided on your distribution disk be available for access.

    You may get to this Level of HELP by placing the cursor on the Command
    Line, typing help and pressing enter.  You will then be requested to
    enter the path specification of where your HELP files are located if
    they cannot be found.  PC-TYPE+ will make a list of these files and
    present them in menu form from which you may select the desired
    subject by moving the Help Selection Bar by pressing the TAB key (or
    Shift TAB key to move in the reverse direction) and then pressing F10.

    When you initially enter PC-TYPE+, you may use the parameter /HELP if
    you wish and this menu will be made available immediately - e.g.,

    A>PCTYPE filespec /HELP
                              Press the PgDn Key

                                 HELP EXAMPLE

    Suppose you want to find out how to change the default BOX definition
    to get a double-lined box instead of a single-lined box.

    LEVEL 1 - Press F1 and peruse the menu.  As you can see, selection
              "j", Character Graphics Commands is a good candidate.  Press
              "j" from the main HELP menu and you will see that Alt# is
              for BOX Character definition.  Then press Esc and you may
              press Alt# to redefine your BOX lines.  (Try it.)

    LEVEL 2 - Press F7, (Blocking Functions) and you will see that F3 says
              "Char Graphics".  Press F3 and you see that F1 or Alt# may
              be pressed for "Define Box".  (Try it.)

    LEVEL 3 - By perusing the INFO file in this mode you will see the line
              "spcl_chr  Using CHARACTER GRAPHICS."  BOX is defined there.

                     Press F4 to Return to the HELP Menu
