BrewManNH Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 You wouldn't be able to merge them so that hitting F1 in Scite will bring up help info on that function. SciTE is programmed to open the AutoIT help file when you do that. If there were a way to decompile the .chm help files you might be able to rebuild it with the other functions help file merged into it, but I haven't done any looking to see if that was possible. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

guinness Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 (edited) You can use 7-Zip to see the contents of a .chm File. But I really think it will get messy and time consuming every time WinAPIEx.au3 is updated. For the record I just have both Help Files side by when coding.

monoscout999 Posted June 21, 2011 Author Share Posted June 21, 2011 I think i gonna request some kind of tool inprovement... it will be nice have the chance to use the help files that comes with the UDFs directly from SciTe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GEOSoft Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 What Help files are you talking about? If it's the Standard UDFs then they already work in Scite. If it's a non-standard UDF then it probably doesn't even include a help file. And none of those contain help "Files" they just have "Pages" in the Standard AutoIt Help file Look under User Defined Functions which as I stated above already works in Scite. Also Remember that Scite4AutoIt3 is a third party tool even though there is a cut down version of it included in the AutoIt installer. George Question about decompiling code?

MilesAhead Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 I think i gonna request some kind of tool inprovement... it will be nice have the chance to use the help files that comes with the UDFs directly from SciTeI've been trying to do a merge myself. I downloaded a free chm merge tool. But it was written before Vista came out. I run it on Windows Seven and it just does nothing when I save the chm set. There's supposed to be a newer version, ABC Amber 2.04 chm merger tool. But I haven't been able to download it. The publisher's page no longer has any download link. It would be nice if there was an easy way to merge the help. What I'm doing now to look up WinAPIEx functions is using a hotkey tray app that opens WinAPIEx.chm via KeyHH then marcros in the function name via key Send. But I have to know which names are WinAPIEx and which are WinAPI. So I have to hit F1 first, then if that doesn't work, hit F2. There's got to be a better way.

GEOSoft Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 just use html help workshop. it will allow you to extract the old autoit project. then you can just add the scite help to the autoitm.hhc file and recompile. that file is just a merge stub that merges the autoit3 help and udfs3 help files.

MilesAhead Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 (edited) HtmlHelp is not my favorite way to waste time. It would be nice the have the tool in case somebody else creates html help with yet another UDF. I don't want to be decompiling by hand. I did HtmlHelp years ago for a small project I wrote and it's a royal pita for small stuff. I had an hlp help script that created and .hlp file from text and screen shots in about 5 minutes of effort. Hate to get bogged in this stuff just to get context sensitive help. Seems no tool will complete even under XP. Really bizarre. Edited March 13, 2012 by MilesAhead My Freeware Page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MilesAhead Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 (edited) Guess the thing to do for the time being is keep using my hotkey hack. If I use auto complete it at least tells me the include file. That way I can distinguish WinAPI from WinAPIEx calls and hit F2. Just frustrated that none of these HtmlHelp merge programs work. Seems like as soon as I start looking for anything HtmlHelp related the publishers pull the freebies from their web pages but leave the dead links. Even MS download page for HtmlHelp SDK is "down for maintenance" it seems! Edited March 13, 2012 by MilesAhead My Freeware Page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GEOSoft Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 this whole chm file thing shouldn't take any more than 10 minutes assuming you don't work with chm projects often. if you do work with chm on a steady basis then you should be ashamed of yourself if it takes longer than half that. tip; if you have never decompiled a chm file; open a command prompt and type hh.exe /? and look at the /d switch.

MilesAhead Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Dude. It's easy to say that once you've done it already. I created a project from decompiled AutoIt.chm and added AutoIt3, UDF and WinAPIEx to the merge tab. But no matter how many times I add the WinAPIEx.hhc to the Contents tab, it changes the forward slash to a backslash. I won't let me enter the link to the .hhc file. It comples the .chm but when opened I get "bad link to toc" error. There's a trick to doing it and I'd appreciate you telling the trick instead of pontificating how smart you are!
