Moin Moin! Yesterday I released the first version of my Debian online help system called dhelp. You can download this experimental version from:
http://www.tu-harburg.de/~rzthmb At the moment the system is supported by doc-linux-de and selfhtml. What's dhelp? dhelp is an online help system for Debian. It builds a index of all HTML files in /usr/doc, if their package supports dhelp. The user doesn't need a WWW server to browse the HTML tree. You can search all HTML documents in /usr/doc using dhelp and glimpse. The .dhelp file Programs supporting dhelp have to install a .dhelp file in every directory under /usr/doc. For every HTML file that should appear in the dhelp menu the .dhelp file have to contain the following section: <item> <directory> Defines in which section of the index the document should be linked. For a German HOWTO you have to use de/HOWTO, for a English FAQ FAQ and so on (see /usr/lib/dhelp/HTML). <linkname> This short text appears as link text in the index. This is typical the filename without the .html suffix. <filename> The filename of the HTML file without the path. <description> ... </description> A long description of the content of the document (optional). </item> You can have several <item> sections in one .dhelp file. At the moment the dhelp standard is supported by the doc-linux-de and the selfhtml packages.
