Hello, dear Forth user!

This directory contains online help files to use with any ANS-Forth
system and with pfe.

For a general statement of purpose see the file `PLEASE.HELP'.

Along with the help files come two simple utility programs:

	helpidx		creates an index from all help files
	showhelp	displays help for a word

I moved them to the directory ../src because it's easier to build them
along with pfe there.
(For DOS and OS/2 executables are in ../emx.)

For installation instructions to use the stuff with pfe see
`../src/makefile'.  After running config and checking the PFEHLP
directory in ../src/makefile you can say `make install'.

(For DOS and OS/2 the helpindex is provided in ../emx. Copy it along
with the files *.hlp to C:\PFE\LIB\HELP to run instantly with the
provided executable. To change the path you'll have to recompile pfe
and rebuild the index.)
