Short answer, you launch a help:// uri and have it handled by whatever provides a desktop file for the uri, typically this is yelp. Longer answer, The docs are either in docbook (not recommended these days) or mallard format installed in <distro docdir>/yourappname [1]. Then have your app launch the uri relative to the docdir [2]. If you want to integrate this with your autotools build system see [3]. Several tools are available to help you create and edit the pages [4]. ~infirit [1] this is typically /usr/share/doc [2] example uri help://yourappname [3] https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Yelp/Tools/yelp.m4 [4] https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Yelp/Tools _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
