View a Help File as a Help Page

  

View help files that have been saved in a user-created help database.

1. 

Using the libname command, assign the order in which to search the help database directories that contain your help files.

  

To automatically complete this step in every Maple session, define libname to include your user-created help database directory in your initialization file. When you start Maple, your help database file will automatically be read.

2. 

Enter ?helptopicname at the prompt to display the help file as a help page.

libname := "c:\Maple\MyHelpDatabase", libname;
