Re: help system



Hi Andreas,

we deal with the same situation right now too. So it would be nice if you could
tell us in which project you have use this or directly share the autotools-
fragment with us on the mailing list.

Ciao

Hi.

Can anyone suggest a way of providing a context-sensitive
help in a GTK+ application?  I don't want to depend on
GNOME if possible.  On the other hand, I'd like the help
to be consistent with GNOME if that is installed.


I've this problem also in a project. At configure time I try to detect
if Gnome (gnome-help; yelp) is installed and if so I install all data
that is needed for gnome-help. If it's not detected I install the to
HTML converted docbook data and display it into a browser. But there're
still some problem. I found no perfect way to invoke the users "default"
browser. Currently I let him select one from a list and remember this
value.

If you like to know more about this I can send you more information. I
need a lot of time to change the autotools stuff to my special
situation.

regards
Andreas
