Thank you !

On Ubuntu Feisty Fawn and wxWidgets 2.8.1 I had to change
prefix=wx2.8-manual_
to
prefix=wx_

It's nice to see people are still using the help plugin... specially the most recent features :)

I'm looking for a way to get the same functionality out of the help plugin in linux that I currently enjoy in windows with .chm files.

This yelp script is a good start, but it cannot find functions, only classes.

How difficult would it be for the help plugin to work with the code completion plugin, a little bit?

Here's why I ask:

Right now, if I press F1 when the cursor is over "wxBoxSizer" in the following code, the $(keyword) macro expands to "wxBoxSizer" and everything is good.

--- Code: ---wxBoxSizer* sizer;

--- End code ---

My wish/feature request is that when I press F1 when the cursor is over "Add" in the following code, that another macro would expand to "wxSizer" in addition to the $(keyword) macro expanding to "Add".

--- Code: ---sizer->Add( widget );

--- End code ---

This would allow launching a help viewer with the function shown, without having to search for all the possible functions.

It would seem that the help plugin would have to request the name of the class from the code completion plugin.

Perhaps there is a better way . . .
