Maybe it's just me, but i find that when you are constantly referring to the help files it becomes a real annoyance trying to get to the right part of the help file. Perhaps if you introduced anchors like that on web sites you could easily direct users to the right part of the help file?

I agree it would be easy, I just don't know if it's upto Khaled to fix that. It depends on whether or not the way microsoft help files work allow that or not.

Yes, the help file desperately needs this. The .hlp format allows such a thing, I've seen it in help files of other applications.

* Raccoon offers to help with the effort of updating the helpfile RTF if Tjerk wishes it... being exceptionally skilled at tediously repeative and otherwise mind-numbing tasks, as my current avatar should attest.


Well. At least I won lunch.
Good philosophy, see good in bad, I like!

3 or 4 days, including the tedious and accurate extracting and combining of every easter-egg phrase Khaled ever added or removed from mIRC's right-click toolbar quotes. There are 40 in all.

That was the easy part. :tongue:

And you say _I_ spend too much time on the forums?

Actually, they were hours spent OFF of the forum... and I meant it took the course of 4 days, not 96 hours. Rather, lazy hours while chatting on IRC with photoshop and other tools in the background.

Besides, I'm not the one defending my day. I openly admit to having no life and wasting it all on the computer. What if I did spend 96 hours on that animated gif? :tongue:

I'd say good for you, maybe one day you'll learn to be a great computer graphics artist.

Do you have Zone Alarm Pro installed with Ad Blocker?
It also blocks animated gifs.
