.\" @(#)compressHelp (C) F. Thomas and M. Brouwer .\" .TH COMPRESSHELP 1 "Local (Apr 1993)" .SH NAME compressHelp \- compress help directory to one file for NeXT's help system. .SH SYNOPSIS .B compressHelp [ .B \-d \-h \-n \-v \-V ] helpDirectory [directory ..] .SH DESCRIPTION .I compressHelp is not restricted to be used on help directories but only useful for these. .I compressHelp writes the file it produces to the parent directory of .IR helpDirectory . So .RI ` "compressHelp " test/Help' produces a file .IR test/Help .store. .I compressHelp doesn't delete your help directory although it's not needed anymore for the application. But as I don't ship .I uncompressHelp it would be impossible to make any changes. The output file should be compatible to the help directory. If it's not send email to .br `frank@glocke.robin.de (Frank Thomas)'. .SH OPTIONS .PP .TP 8 .B \-d Delete directory after successful creation of .store file. Useful from within a Makefile.postamble. .TP .B \-h Show all options of .IR compressHelp . .TP .B \-n Don't print warnings for unrecognized files. Normally it prints a warning for all non regular files like symlinks and devices. .TP .B \-v Verbose mode. Shows what the program is doing. .TP .B \-V Print version number. .SH "SEE ALSO" .IR duplink (1), " duplink.info" .SH DIAGNOSTICS .I CompressHelp only knows how to handle .IR .rtf , " .rtfd " and " .index.store " files. If .I compressHelp finds some files that it doesn't know how to handle, the message `Unknown filetype .IR name ' is ommited. .SH AUTHOR Frank Thomas <frank@glocke.robin.de> .SH THANKS To Michael Brouwer who wrote .IR duplink , added all options to .I compressHelp and pushed me to continue to work on .IR compressHelp .
