Hello,

I am writing a library, and I was just wandering if it would be possible
to write a help file like the one that comes with the djgpp package,
such that when you click on the right-button in rhide, it displays the
help for that command.  I have already succesfully tried editing the
libc.inf file, but it is not only very time consuming to do it that way,
but it also means i wont be able to use any updates to that document
without loosing my changes.  Also, strictly speaking, my library is not
part of libc, and so the help should not be in that file.

Does anyone have any ideas how i could write a seperate help file, in
the same format used by the info.exe, and be recognised by rhide.  I
have looked at the info help files, and it talks about using textinfo,
but i dont have that file, and i wouldnt know what to do with it even if
i did have it.

Thanks for any help,
    Tony
