Hi Nikolaus and Svetlana, Within GNUstep echosystem, there is also HelpViewer.app : But if You try to open HTML help files provided within the Documentation of GNUsep, f.e. :
pi@raspberrypi:/usr/share/GNUstep/Documentation/User/Gui $ ls DefaultsSummary.html GuiUser.igsdoc LanguageSetup.html dependencies KeyboardSetup.html You will notice that no file seems available from the Library or from the menu "file > open..." thought such files are available in the filesystem. Searching the description of HelpViewer.app from the Debian Package, I could read : > "HelpViewer is an online help viewer for GNUstep programs. It can render > files in the XLP format, although this format has been deprecated and only several packages still use it. Site : http://www.roard.com/helpviewer/"; So, to replace XLP format, it would be nice to be able to read the help in HTML or maybe ePub formats within HelpViewer.app, because opening a real Web Browser is wasting so much RAM. -- Bien cordialement, Patrick CARDONA On 2020-06-08 11:30:49 +0200 H.
