-Help Packs
------------------
- Help texts are stored in a file named 'helppack_*.txt'
- To use the file, place it in the same directory as miranda32.exe, and call it
- helppack_*.txt where * can be anything, however it is recommended that it
- be the language.
-
- An entry in the help file looks like this:
-
- [context_identifier]
- Some text shown as title=Some text<br>that might contain simple html code
-
- IMPORTANT HINT:
- When you press the 'Ctrl' key while opening up the context help tooltip
- it will display the help identifier used in the help file, instead of
- the help text. This is helpful when writing your help file.
- When you press 'Ctrl'-C while a helptip is opened, its text will get
- copied to clipboard.
-
- A list of available HTML tags that might be helpful when writing
- help texts:
- styles: <i>italic</i>, <b>bold</b>, <u>underlined</u>
- linebreak: <br>
- sizes: <big>large text</big>, <small>tiny text</small>
- hyperlinks: <a href="url">link title</a>
- paragraph: <p>text</p>
- colors: <font color="#colorcode">colmred text</font>
- instead of #hexcode you can also use the following 16 default color names:
- black, maroon, green, olive, navy, purple, teal, silver,
- gray, red, lime, yellow, blue, fuchsia, aqua, white
-
- Be careful when using those html tags.
- Do not use them massively, instead pick them when appropriate to
- guide the reader. Keep in mind that it is still a *help* text.
-
- Some special symbols must be specified differently:
- instead of < use <
- instead of > use >
- instead of & use &
- instead of " use "
- A space can be also specified as
-
- To specify a specific Unicode character
- you can use a special numeric representation:
- &#[x][Number];
- Examples: α and α
- When you place an x in in front the number needs to be hexadecimal.
-
- Please refer to 'helppack_sample.txt' for an example help file.
-
-Translation
------------------
- Translation strings for language pack maintainers can be found in
- 'Help-Translation.txt'.
-
-Debug Symbols
------------------
- Debug symbols are also available for debugging purposes.
- Copy the PDB-files into the same directory as the
- corresponding DLL-files.
- To debug crashes the supplied MAP-file file might be helpful.
-
-Coding Language
------------------
- Help Plugin was written using Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 SP6
- and the Microsoft Platform SDK shipped along with it.
-
- The project files for VS 7 and 8 (*.vcproj and *.vspscc) are not
- kept up-to-date.
- The working project files are the ones of VS 6 (*.dsw and *.dsp).
-
-Rebase Info
------------------
- Help Plugin has set its base address to:
- 0x20100000
-
- Please avoid using this base address for your plugins because it will
- slow down the start of Miranda IM.
- Try to choose a unique base address for each plugin you create.
-
- Using Microsoft Visual C++, the base address can be configured at:
- 'Project' -> 'Settings' -> 'Linker' -> 'Output' -> 'Base Address'
