	You can try Emacs, or something else like it, also you can browse
info from it. I am now preparing scripts for QEdit Advanced (Copyrighted, SW)
for such actions. Maybe they'll work some day. Then I'll post information
here.

	Install djdocXXX.zip and look at libc topic in info, also for Lib++
add lgpXXXdc.zip, and look in iostream, etc. Did you set go32 environment
for tw and th, if you using non-default values (it happened to me, and h
wasn't working). Also do not use SPACE and BACKSPACE for paging. Use PgUp
PgDown instead. Also try to describe problem more specificaly. Maybe answer
will be more useful.
