My solution was to use the 'HELPMAKE' program to unencode the .hlp
files included with the system. After that, I ran the whole mess through
MicroEmacs and separated the wheat from the chaff. I divided up the 
sections into separate named files, put them in a special directory, and
I can then load them into emacs in a separate buffer when I need them.

There are some drawbacks, of course. There is no automatic hyperlink-like
capability, but at least I'm freed from using the quickC editor! :-)
Now, if I just had the cashola to spring for a package with codeview for
debugging....

 Now I'm having INSIPID THOUGHTS about the beatiful, round
 wives of HOLLYWOOD MOVIE MOGULS encased in PLEXIGLASS CARS
 and being approached by SMALL BOYS selling FRUIT..
