PROCshell_InitHelpSystem()
=> str path name of help files
bool DieWithTask flag
Used to register a new help system with StrongHlp.
After making this call StrongHlp will add the help
system found in the given path to its icon bar menu.
If StrongHlp cannot be found then the initialisation
command is stored and sent when StrongHlp is started.
-DieWithTask Flag
When TRUE the help system will only be added to
the StrongHlp icon bar menu while the user
application is actually running. When FALSE it
remains available when the application quits.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
PROCshell_HelpWord()
=> str word for which help is to be displayed
Used to send a help request to StrongHlp. If the word
is found in the help system the appropriate help text
will be displayed.
StrongHlp will be started if it is not already
running and StrongHelp$Dir has been defined. If
StrongHlp cannot be found then an error will be
generated.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
FNshell_StrongHlpIsAvailable
=> None
<= bool TRUE if StrongHelp$Dir is defined,
otherwise FALSE

a 'Help' menu item if StrongHlp has not been seen
by the Filer, or if it is not available.
Example code...
Shade menu item with the handle HlpItem% if StrongHlp
is not available:
PROCshell_MenuShade(HlpItem%,(FNshell_StrongHlpIsAvailable=0))
