Hi Pritpal,

I've found that you've decided to replicate complete 
help texts of hbmk2, harbour, xpp.exe and alink.exe 
hard-wired inside HBIDE source code.

While the latter two may well violate copyrights, it's 
even not a good idea to replicate external tool help 
text like that in HBIDE code for Harbour's own utilities. 
The smaller problem is that it doesn't honor translations, 
the bigger is that it may be off compared to the actual 
version of hbmk2 / harbour being used. IOW it breaks 
separation of layers and responsibilities.

Please remove them and just call these tools with 
"--help" or equivalent help option to query help text and  
present the output to users.

Brgds,
Viktor
