| 631.1 | There's a manual for this... LIBRARIAN | FROST::HARRIMAN | How do I work this? | Wed Dec 16 1987 17:31 | 10 |
|
how about:
$ Library/extract=WHATEVER/output=WHATEVER.HLP Your_Library.HLB
$ Edit/(tpu,edt,etc) WHATEVER.HLP
$ Library/replace/help your_library WHATEVER
Since help libraries are libraries after all, use that handy utility.

| 631.2 | .hlb failure revisited | LOOP::GRANT | infernals & data struggles | Wed Feb 03 1988 12:55 | 21 |
| after looking through every software manual in the office
( field service ), i don't have a the librarian manual, and
as a matter of fact, no one in software has one either. well
after beating the help files to death, i think that the file
i am trying to edit may be special...i play moria. and in
order to get the help file to work while executing (playing)
the game all that is required is to put MORIAHLP.HLB into
SYS$HELP. thats all! the only problem is that it is not
really installed as a help file in vms and here i believe
my problem lies.....all i want to do is freshen the darn
file up a bit, but my best attempts fail...should i install
it into vms, i'm the system manager, and that would not be
a problem, but i don't know how to do that either...
any help would be appreciated...
come on guys, you never failed me before

| The librarian is documented in the utilities manual.
Quick and dirty:
$ LIBR/HELP/EXTRACT=*/OUT=MORIAHLP.HLP MORIAHLP.HLB
Now, you have a text file called MORIAHLP.HLP that you can edit.
You'll find stuff like:
1 HELP
This is the stuff on how to use the help command
1 Players
General description of player types
2 Wizard
Description of wizards
Things to note: The numbers are in column 1, and describe the "level"
in the help tree. The text in each help topic starts in column 2.
Extract the file and look at it - it will become obvious.
