I got Help in TP v5.5.  IDE help works, as does THELP.COM (though it
wanted drive E:; but a Fail on that made it work).

Ah, I see - the HELP is in an ARC file, ISTR, and needs extraction.

The INSTALL.EXE locked up my Tandon 486/33 PC (seemingly at or near the
end), needing hard boot, with the screen showing total randomness.  But
I suspect that it does nothing that cannot be done manually.
