Using the WebHub Help File
? Notation
The WebHub Documentation uses the notation [? Keyword] to
indicate that the given keyword may be found in the WebHub Help File's regular
index. If you manually search for the given keyword, you will find it. This shortcut
notation is used to save the space in explaining this each time a cross-reference
comes up.
In General
The help file installs to ht\doc\webhub.hlp. You can run it by double-clicking the filename,
and you should have a startup icon for it under
Programs|HREF Tools. When you are working with the Hub, you get context-sensitive help
by pressing F1.
Context-Sensitive help in Delphi 2
A webhub.kwf (keyword file) is provided so that you can merge the webhub help file in with Delphi's help.
Context-Sensitive help in Delphi 3
The help file is automatically installed to provide context-sensitive help within Delphi 3 but here is the fine print.
If you just installed Delphi and have never opened its help file, WebHub's help won't be added automatically. To deal with this, press F1 inside Delphi, close Help, and then run this utility provided with WebHub. It will merge the help file into Delphi's system. Note that this is a console application. Run it from a DOS window to see the messages.
c:\ht\htutil\adjhlp.exe c:\ht\doc\webhub.hlp // replace paths as necessary
Warning! Delphi 3 hides many of the help topics available on WebHub. To see the full help system, you should just run the webhub.hlp file directly as mentioned at the top of this page. You can then search for any topic manually.
