Hello,
I converted binary xnc.hlp to mandoc format and merged it with mc.1.in.
Here are the patches to src/man2hlp.c, doc/mc.1.in (English version),
and doc/Makefile.am.
You can do
$ diff mc.hlp.old mc.hlp
to see that nothing was broken by the patch...
Of course, there are some minor

What do you think if I convert xnc.hlp to mandoc format
and patch man2hlp respectively?
I think it will be sufficient to add to man2hlp

Well, we can go with the simple solution for now - but it
should be documented somewhere to prevent further confusion.
As to whether it is worth the effort - think about this:
Me and you together spent a considerable amount of time on a
simple issue - was it worth it ?

Implementing either solution would not remove the necessity of this:

To fix this there should be no preformatted pages involved, IMO. But

I had this idea now. How about fixing the code that captures mouse
events from xterm instead ? I.e. when it receives a mouse down event
it will record which key was pressed and it will copy this information
to the mouse up event ?
This will be not always reliable. Suppose

Hello,
Here are 3 patches to the mouse issues in the Help Viewer.
1) mouse-rightbutton.patch
Returning to a previous node by pressing right mouse button
doesn't work in xterm. It works only in Linux console with GPM.
The problem is that help_event() catches only GPM_UP event,
and it seems that

Good point!
Certainly, this would be better.
The help format documentation says:

It seems like man2hlp is producing output

IMO.
In some nodes (eg, Menu File Edit) preformatted text is used

OK, but can you tell me a hotkey in mc to copy a full address of file in
command line?
Try Ctrl+Shift+Enter.
It may not work on some terminals, but it works for me.
It will copy the full pathname to the command line, eg:
/#ftp:ftp.server.local/films/verygoodfilm.avi
However, you have to edit

I am not convinced that this patch is better than your first

It does fix the _original_ issue. And that one you are talking about
is quite a different thing (see below).
It isn't related to

open to suggestions.
Yes, I thought about it too. This is a good and safe fix.
But I have a suggestion.
Actually, 'startpoint' is used only once at

Oh, now I see that I had hurried over to make that patch.
I'll check everything and make another one. Without haste.

and it should be used here. And by the way, 'startpoint' variable
seems to be totally useless.
So in my patch I replaced 'startpoint' with 'currentpoint' and
removed the 'startpoint' variable completely.

Sorry for that.
