Complex, not poor.
2) HelpViewer is useless as many have commented.
Not fully true. HelpViewer is useful but it has some problems:
- bad document rendering:
* sample codes of the CFPropertyList documents are for instance really
fully screwed.
* some bugs in the blitting code make some parts of the window not to be
updated.
- some parts of the documentation organization is really strange:
CoreFoundation is a good example of strange organization. But it's not
really a problem with HelpViewer
- bad widgets position: I personally hate having the back and forward
button at the bottom of the window.
- impossible to copy some parts of the documentation. The copy button on
the left of the function prototypes are a huge problem when you use a
real Browser to copy the function name. Anyway you can't copy sample
code from HelpViewer.
