[SOLVED] How to add help files to CodeBlocks on Ubuntu?
« on: December 17, 2010, 03:44:42 pm »
I know how to add help files on Windows, but on ubuntu, in "Settings" --> "Environment", I just can't find the "Help Files" item. Is there anything wrong? Thanks!

Do you have the contrib-plugins package installed ?

No... I've just seen the point, but I have compiled CodeBlocks. And when I try to compile help_plugin alone, I get the error:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lsqplus
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lsqstdlib
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lsquirrel
I've googled for it, but nothing useful found. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

./configure --help and read about the --with-contrib option
(most of the time I ignore long posts)

Thank you! I've read it, and recompiled CodeBlocks, and it works now!
