README for HTML-Help 1.1
-------------------------
Requirements
------------
Any Atari ST/TT/Falcon with at least 512 KB and TOS 1.4 (1.0 and 1.2
may work but I haven't tested that). A harddisk and a good text editor
is recommended and, of course, a WWW browser like CAB or Webspace. It
is a good idea to use an editor that can run as an ACC if you are
working with single TOS. HTML-Help has also been successfully tested
on a Hades 060.
Changes
-------
0.9 First version, published by the German Atari magazine
Atari Inside in August 1996.
1.1 Accessory access under single TOS!
Around 90 special characters are now supported.
The text viewer can now be set directly from HTML-Help.
Support for American English :-) . The only effect is
that 'colour' is replaced by 'color'...
I put many of the internal text information into the RSC
file to make translations to other languages easier.
The original Atari fileselector is now displayed without
problems.
Nice graphics for the help/info dialog!
1.15 Filenames can now be shortened.
1.2 Minor enhancements.
Languages
---------
HTML-Help supports two languages: English and German. American English
and French are partly supported.
Falcon users don't have to change any file names, HTML-Help will load
the right RSC file. If the language is not German it will load
automatically the English RSC.
ST/TT users can set the language in the options dialog.
Convert special characters
--------------------------
Convert between Atari, Windows and HTML characters.
Please note that this conversion can't be perfect due to the different
character sets of each computer. Many capital umlauts are missing in
the Atari character set. They are converted to their lower case
equivalents. The Windows ANSI set doesn't support many mathematical
symbols. HTML supports so many characters that they can't be converted
all.
Some characters will not be converted. These are: "&<>
They are part of the HTML syntax and a conversion would damage the file.
View text
---------
The Text window isn't 100% compatible GEM. It works well under
640*480/400 but may look strange under other resolutions. So I have
integrated a new feature to use a text editor instead of the
integrated text viewer. Since version 1.1, the viewer can be set
directly from the HTML-Help option dialog. I recommend Edith as the
text editor because it can run together with HTML-Help under single
TOS.
The paths for browser and editor can be defined in HTML-Help.
