been compiled. Help screens can be changed at any time after the
compilation of the program as the screens are kept in a database file.

SET KEY <expN> TO MAKEHLP
Pass:
Nothing (other than the normal things passed by SET KEY) NOTE: See
gc_HelpPrg and gc_HelpVar in Global Variables Section
Return:
Nothing
Notes:
Example:
SET KEY 291 TO MAKEHLP
Usage:
When this routine is called, you will see a box appear on the screen.
You should size the box using the technique described in GETCOORD.
When you have a box that is suitable for your help window, press
[RETURN]. At this point you may edit the help text as you wish. When
you are done, press Ctrl-W.
