I am glad to have the pdf in existance, i tend to use it more than the .txt of the extracted documentation, just because it's sooooo easier to search. And i hurt myself typing that because i hate pdfs.
Dan, do you have an example of what you want the help file to look like?
useless
Well, actually I'm talking about the HTML documentation, not a pdf, haven't thought about that. But for HTML doc, just an additional page, with link to it from current main page, perhaps, like this (where each entry would be a link to its section), just the chapter headings:
TOC
1 Euphoria Programming Language v4.0
2 Euphoria License
3 Quick Start
4 Language Reference
5 Syntax Reference
6 Mini-Guides
7 Included Tools
8 General Routine Reference
9 Sequence Centric Routines
10 String Centric Routines
11 Data Structures
12 Networking Routines
13 Low Level Routines
14 Graphics
15 Euphoria Routines
16 Windows Routines
17 Release Notes
Point would be that once a person knew from looking at the REGULAR main page of the docs enough times to know what kinds of info was where, then being able to select to see a specific category of interest on an ABBREVIATED, *alternative* page could be helpful.
Maybe I just get distracted too easily, but that main page is just too "busy" for me.
