- GHelpDeluxeMUI V4.0:-
-
- Version 4.0 of GHelpDeluxe.
-
- Description:-
-
- A small suite of two programs which provides instant access to all Amigaguide, ReadMe and Doc files
- at the touch of a hotkey. Also provides a progressive search facility of all documents.
-
- With the addition of a utility such as IDer (or indeed AACD prefs) it can be used to catalogue and
- view all filetypes for which a viewer exists (but that's accidental :o)
-
- V4.0 will probably be the last version of GHelp, since I've taken it about as far as it can go. If any
- bugs are reported, I will fix them. But from here on it's likely to be maintenance updates only,
- unless anyone comes up with a really good suggestion
-
- New in V4.0
-
- - Eliminated Searchguide support. I have, instead, now included my own routine which will search
- down to node level in AmigaGuide documents, and present the results in an Amigaguide doc,
- including links to the matched nodes and a brief "In context" quote. Unlike SearchGuide, my
- version fully supports AmigaDOS pattern matching. GHelp also repairs most links within the quoted
- lines enabling them to be accessed directly from the results page.
- - Fixed a most elusive bug in index generation which caused GHelp to hang. This has also allowed
- further code optimisations.
- - Added full AmigaDOS pattern matching to keyword searching.
- - Added full AmigaDOS pattern matching to index generation.
- - Guidelist now supports multiple selection, allowing a restricted search of the Amigaguide
- database.
- - New tooltype "SHOWSFX" - extended to filter guide/doc/readme suffixes, all suffixes, or show all
- suffixes.
- - Now supports multiple config files.
- - Index loading from anywhere on the gui.
- - Added a remove button to remove files from the guidelist without deleting the file itself.
- - Further internal optimisations to the code.
- - The last search term is now stored in, and retrieved from the config file.
- - Finally solved the problem of the Index generation page not being re-sizable, by changing one of
- the mui classes.
- - Considerably improved index/guide management
- - Since one of my other utilities was recently hacked and infected with a virus, GHelp now checks
- itself for signs of tampering. If it appears that either GHelp or GHelpGUI have been tampered
- with then you will be notified and the program will exit. If this does happen, please contact
- Me immediately. YOU SHOULD ALSO RUN A VIRUS CHECKER IMMEDIATELY.
- - Added an installer script.
