- ; Config file for JBPHelp. a SEMI-COLON is a comment line
- ;
- ;------------------------------------------------------------------------
- ;
- ; JBPHelp has three different methods to determine what task is active when
- ; the *HELP* key was pressed. To tell it how it should go about trying to
- ; connect the right help file with the right task, you need to place the
- ; proper entries in this config file. The BEST way to select a help file
- ; is to allow JBPHelp to TRACK the intuition window back to the task that
- ; created it. Each task has a TASK NAME. If JBPHelp is able to CLEARLY
- ; show you a READABLE name and not some garbage-looking TASK NAME, then
- ; you should use that name here in the config file. Place an @ symbol
- ; infront of the task name followed by the help file to show. Notice that
- ; most any task run from workbench can be done this way.
- ;-----------------------------------------------------------------------
- ; The next alternative is the PATH. For those tasks launched from CLI,
- ; the task name is not always filled in with the actual name but with the
- ; name BACKGROUND CLI or BACKGROUND PROCESS. Since JBPHelp cannot
- ; distinguish two CLI tasks because of the nomenclature, we must ask the CLI
- ; what the PATHNAME of the program is to find out which program we are
- ; wanting to show help for. We use a $ symbol to indicate that the text
- ; following is the FILENAME portion of the PATH *ONLY* and immediatly follow
- ; the filename with a blank and the name of the help file to show. This
- ; should be your second alternative.
- ;--------------------------------------------------------------------------
- ; Lastly and the most awkward is the * symbol. If the above two methods
- ; cannot be used, the only recourse is to try to look at a portion of the
- ; title in the WINDOW of the program we want to show help for. In cases
- ; where the program has been RUN using some non-standard RUN command, or
- ; the program has it's own nasty way of being launched from CLI but can
- ; detach itself without the <NIL: > NIL: redirections in the CLI, neither
- ; the TASKNAME (probably BACKGROUND PROCESS) nore the PATH (probably '')
- ; will be of any help. Here we will have to look at a few letters in the
- ; WINDOW TITLE. Be careful You can only choose up to the end of the first
- ; WORD in the title in this version.
- ;---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- ;
- ;NOTE: Examples of these three methods are given in the config file.
- ;
- ; @ -- TASKNAME
- ; $ -- FILENAME part of PATH
- ; * -- First word in WINDOW TITLE (or the first part of the first word)
