I don't know for sure--I haven't tested this--but ":help add-local-help" uses as an example, :helptags ~/.vim/doc Note that that path ends with the doc directory. So try this: :helptags ~/.vim/ftplugin/foo/doc HTH, Gary -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
