   What is this Borland C++ Help Compiler that recent postings have mentioned?
   I've just installed BC, but I saw no reference to this component.

The help compiler takes RTF (Rich Text Format) text files and produces
a "binary" file which the microsoft windows help program can use like
other windows help.  RTF is produced by several different programs, an
example being Word for Windows.  It is supposed to be part of BC++,
but may arrive in a seperate package later.  It is necessary for
programs you want to have help within, otherwise, it doesn't matter
too much.
