Dear Graham,
Thanks for the tip - nice to be back in Cocoa land. There's still a
couple of problems:
The title does show up on the help button - well, just the central
letters as it's clipped by the button size.
I'm not sure what to use for the anchor parameter. I want to open a
page called entries.html so I made the button title entries.html (and
didn't worry about the appearance for now), resulting in the (by now)
familiar message of 'Help Viewer cannot open this content'. I added an
anchor at the top of the <body> of the file:
<a id="entries"></a>
and tried 'entries' and 'entries.html#entries' as anchor parameters,
with the same 'cannot open' message in each case. I've turned on
anchor indexing in Help Indexer - what am I missing?

You could use NSHelpManager instead, which is more cocoa-y.
I handle my help buttons with this, which uses the help button's
title to store the help item anchor (help buttons don't have visible
titles)
- (IBAction) showHelpItemWithTitleOfSender:(id) sender
{
NSString* book = [[NSBundle mainBundle]
objectForInfoDictionaryKey:@"CFBundleHelpBookName"];
NSString* anchor = [sender title];
[[NSHelpManager sharedHelpManager] openHelpAnchor:anchor
inBook:book];
}

My Help Book is now working fine - so much so that I've decided to
add little help buttons on parts of the UI. All is well except that
my call to AHGotoPage() can't find the function. What do I need to
include? I know it's in AppleHelp.h but what's the format of the
#include to get this, er, included.
