- Does anyone have or know of code to read and use VMS help files on SG systems?
- We use programs developed on VMS which have large help libraries to go with them
- but the only way to use these on the Unix system is to extract them as large text
- files and use more to look for the relevant bit.
-
- Some program which uses the embeded level numbers in the text file etc would be very
- useful. If there was some easy automatic way to extract all the levels into a
- directory hierarchy that may also be useful.
-
- Thanks in advance,
-
- Steve
