Help Program

Hey all,

Is it just me or is the help10 program found on the archives really strange and
not all that useful? I'd really like to be able to make some changes to it (such
as display the Syntax, Description, and Example pieces all on one display with
headering, and the See Also hyperlinks or items in a drop down).

I was thinking about writing my own viewer for the data file format (it looks
more or less straight forward), but found that I felt like I was wasting my
time.

Also, it seems sort of odd that the help file format isn't an EDS database or
something along those lines. What was the reasoning behind that?

I *really* like the idea of an alternative help format, but as is, this won't
cut it.
