41. View Help Files

The entire KwikText website is packaged and available to be viewed as a series of help files from within KwikText. You can also, of course, view the same material at the KwikText website, www.kwiktext.com.

To access the help files using KwikText, download the zip file, "KwikText_Help.zip" and place it in the same directory as the program file, "kwiktext.jar".

To view help files while running KwikText:
  1. In KwikText, click the Help button, then click Help on the pop-up list.
  2. If help files are available, KwikText will launch your browser and the home page will be displayed.
  3. Select topics by clicking on links in the table of contents window on the left side of the main screen.
Behind the scenes: When you click the KwikText Help button, KwikText looks for the "KwikText_Help.zip" file. If found, KwikText unzips the help files, places them in the KwikText help directory, deletes the zip file, and displays the help files using your default browser. Subsequent help calls skip the unzip process unless you download a new version of "KwikText_Help.zip".
