Hello,

Many thanks to the kind folk who made suggestions regarding the
CoolHelp system for accessing IDL 5.5 online help. I think we have
incorporated as many of the suggestions possible. The updated
version is available at www.tidewater.net/~pemaquid. Here are the
newish features...

- it has a very small memory requirement compared to the earlier
version
- it has a MAC friendly name for the help text file
- it uses FILE_WHICH properly
- it has a SEARCH field for the name of a routine (watch yer spellign)
- it has a button for launching the RSI built-in hyper help
- it has a BRIEF option which disables the GUI and simply spits out
the calling syntax for the queried routine into the output log
- it can be modified (I think pretty darn easily) for your own
home-grown help system.
- it corrects the problem caused by double entries of XROI
- it's just in time for IDL 5.6!

Enjoy,

Ben
