TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Arthur Commings and Dick Gaskill (NT) wanted to know how to link their Frame
help files to their applications (From Dick's post I assume that Frame
creates native help files for Windows):
We develop software in C++ and in LISP (AutoCAD) and essentially, you need
to call the Windows help engine along with the help filename and the topic
map string or ID number (depending if Frame maps the topics).
Ex: winhelp helpfile>topicID
To know more I suggest you subscribe to the WinHelp list. They're very
helpful ;-):
