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.
