Be mystified no longer. MS ships a help application for the Mac as well. As
for shipping it with the mac application, it would probably be a good idea.
(A better idea would have been to write it in Apple Guide, as it's a far
better help system and you can be sure every mac user with a recent OS will
have it.) You see, there are a lot of Mac users who don't have any MS
applications on their system (my home system, for example) so wouldn't have
the help application.
