fpGUI's Docview? ;-) Docview (and the whole of fpGUI) is supported and tested on Linux, Windows, FreeBSD, DesktopBSD, OpenSolaris, WindowsCE and ARM/Linux. Unofficially it works on Mac OS X (via X11) and ReactOS (a Windows clone OS) too. HyperHelp is a help viewer licensed by Borland to ship with Kylix. The original creators of HyperHelp has long gone out of business. The help format is proprietary too (it is not the same as WinHelp), but you can get a copy of the Kylix 3 help (which is on par with Delphi 7 help) and a copy of HyperHelp, by downloading the free version of Kylix 3 Open Edition and using my license key (for the open edition only of course, seeing that neither Borland nor Embarcadero can unlock Kylix 3 any more - the joys of closed source software). http://opensoft.homeip.net:8080/wiki/wiki.cgi?p=kylix-3-open-edition HyperHelp runs fine under 64-bit linux too (that is what I currently use). -- Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://fpgui.sourceforge.net -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
