Re: Help?

Hmm, how are you opening the file? If you are using Runtime.exec (evil, but useful at times) then look at the options for the 'open' (the -a flag allows you to indicate which application to use when opening the file.

I'm not aware of any Java-specific way to get the file to open in Help Viewer. In Cocoa you can indicate what to open via a plist key, but there you have a pre-built .help bundle that contains your Help Viewer help files.

Being able to write Java programs with native, decent graphics is just
great. I'm of course talking about MacOSX, and I'm totally enthusiastic
about my new discovery. Kudos to Apple from a long-time Mac occasional,
and sceptical, user.

The only problem: I've built a small app with Project Builder and
written a test help file in HTML, as suggested in the docs. Now, when
you choose Help in the Help menu, my "help" file opens - but in Internet
Explorer (which I have set to be the default browser). How can I make it
open in the Help Viewer, which I find more "professional" for help
files?

Thanks,
Morten
