Helpfiles

[Molly]

Not all of those who have access to the hedit command for writing Helpfiles have shell access.
At present it is possible to edit existing helpfiles directly, as long as you have hedit access.

But for new ones, a command has to be typed in the shell, to make the new helpfile visible after it has been written.
(And, just to jog my own bad memory, this command is ./fix_help).
It's an easy operation, but to carry it out, we need to know about the new files being created.

So, after you have created a new helpfile on any subject, please send a note about it to imm.
You don't have to notify us, if you just updated an existing file however.

There is also a large number of existing helpfiles named 'UNDEFINED'.
So a way around this bug would be to start the new helpfile with the command 'hedit undefined', and then just change the file name.
Then you'll be editing an existing file.

I have been slowly going through the help file itself and removing empty and undefined since there was a lot of them at the end of the file.

The fix_help file is in the root of our main login. And as Molly wrote it is just ./fix_help
