_H_e_l_p finds information to explain a message from an SCCS command or
explain the use of an SCCS command. Zero or more arguments may be
supplied. If no arguments are given, _h_e_l_p will prompt for one.
The arguments may be either message numbers (which normally appear in
parentheses following messages) or command names, of one of the following
types:
type 1 Begins with non-numerics, ends in numerics. The non-numeric
prefix is usually an abbreviation for the program or set of
routines which produced the message (e.g., ggggeeee6666, for message 6
from the _g_e_t command).
type 2 Does not contain numerics (as a command, such as ggggeeeetttt)
type 3 Is all numeric (e.g., 222211112222)
The response of the program will be the explanatory information related
to the argument, if there is any.
When all else fails, try ``help stuck''.

help he1
prints the message for error number "he1".

Use _h_e_l_p(1) for explanations.
NNNNOOOOTTTTEEEESSSS
_h_e_l_p(1) is not a general help facility. It only knows about the SCCS
commands and error messages generated by those commands.
