Hi Friedrich

On share/doc/pspp I have only pspp.xml (just 1 file) In fact I can't see
any pspp.html file anywhere in my build. Do I need additional steps to get
the pspp.html included during build?

I donwload the .pdf and .html files during building from Ben's daily
tarballs. The .pdf is included and pointed to from the desktop and the
start menu. I could include the .html too so it can be reached from the
help menu.

Have fun
