I'd like to have help working for       my programs that        seem to be calling view - all I get is newview throwing an empty screen with a       usage box popup.              For example, ZOC has, in its directory, g:\zoc4\zoc.hlp which I can open with       newview by        clicking directly on the file, but invoking help from the menubar does not       work.              I'd like to be able to have one easy way to access help, whether it be for OS2       commands, TCP/IP        commands and functions, REXX, or the applications as well.              If I open newview and then click open, I need to specify a directory (whether       it be x:\os2\help or        x:\tcpip\help or y:\os2progs\help and then I can select from a list of files;       many with cryptic and        unintuitive names.              I don't mind going to an open cmd window and entering HELP REXX or HELP FTP or       whatever.              Is this as good as it gets?       --         Julian Thomas: jt@jt-mj.net http://jt-mj.net        In the beautiful Genesee Valley of Western New York State!        -- --        Error #33: (A)bort this mess (R)etry last mistake (S)kip to new mess-up.                            --         Julian Thomas: jt@jt-mj.net http://jt-mj.net        In the beautiful Genesee Valley of Western New York State!        -- --        Good Intentions Paving Company: "We did the road to Hell."                            --         Julian Thomas: jt@jt-mj.net http://jt-mj.net        In the beautiful Genesee Valley of Western New York State!        -- --        2 + 2 = 5 for extremely large values of 2.                                   ------------------------------------              Yahoo!
