- There's a Pure C to ST-Guide format convertor included in the
- distribution called PC_Conv and you can even rename STGUIDE.ACC to
- PC_HELP.ACC and use them directly if you prefer.
- So if the Geneva help files are Pure C compatible they'll work directly
- with ST-Guide. If they're not can I suggest you make them fully Pure C
- compatible or write a convertor to make them so?
- As mentioned already by somebody else there is an English language
- *executable* on release now (and the nasty bug is fixed) but the
- documentation in that archive is all German.
- The version I'll be uploading later this month has complete English
- documentation, it's worth waiting for.
