Date: Thu Apr 12 1990 11:13
the following parameters are allowed:
on the stack: 'global name' help
if a global name is not on the stack, the program will prompt
you for one. at this prompt, you have two options:
1) enter "purge" to purge the help text...
(the program will re-prompt you for the global name to purge.
if you specify "purge" again, it will say "purge canceled.")
2) enter "define" to define help text...
(the program will re-prompt you for the global name to define.
if you specify "define" again, it will say "define canceled.")
note: if you execute "purge" or "define" in opposite modes (i.e.,
if you specify "define" for the purge name, the program
will cancel the previous operation and change modes to the
new mode now defined. the program will let you know because
i tried to make it as user-friendly as possible.
after all, it is a help program...
enter a global name using alpha or menus (without the '')
the program will display the name, the size, crc (if defined)
and also a 3 line by 16 char text that you may enter describing
the file.

allowed for general distribution.
also note: when the help is displayed, pressing left-shift print
(gold mth), will print out your help screen in a pretty and formatted
fashion.
