It seems to still work correctly.
Is it normal though that the "select help entry" dialog shows
duplicates? This happens e.g. when using F1 on "var" (contents "Pascal
keyword "var"" and "Pascal keyword "var" (2)") and on "TObjectList" with
"contnrs" in uses clause (contents: "FCL - Free Pascal Component Library
Units ( type TObjectList in
e:\fpc\svn\packages\fcl-base\src\contnrs.pp)" (twice!) [sidenote: a
horizontal scrollbar would be nice here as well, although I know that
the window can be resized...]).
Also how should one select an identifier in the Code Browser to get the
help entry? Double clicking the entry opens the class' declaration
inside the editor, but I'd like to get the help...
Regards,
Sven
