Yes. Version Numbers can have up to 3 dots, eg. 1.2.3.4

Thanks Kirby, you should write books for vbulletin.
Yeah, uhm, actually it's a good idea...
Kirby.. How about making a CHM collection of all the HowTO's you've written so far? :P That would be really useful.

Andreas 08-01-2005 12:12 PM

If you could enlighten me what CHM is and how to create that - why not.
Hmm ... I could create a PDF.

CHM is the file extension for Microsoft compressed HTML help files, in the other words it is the standard Windows format for storing help files. There are special software programs that allow you to create those CHM files...

As long as you make a table of contents, a PDF file would also be good. CHM files are usually neater and cleaner though...

This is an example of a CHM manual:

I thought the standard Windows Helpfile-Format was .hlp?
As this is what I ship my Applications with ...

Anyway, I think PDF would be better then a "proprietary" Format that doesn't work on all Platforms.

A HLP format is old and generally deprecated. Read about it here:

Concerning platform compatibility: In Windows it is integrated, Linux has KchmViewer, Macintosh X a CHMViewer1.1... I am sure other major platforms also have a viewer for such a common filetype, otherwise it wouldn't be used in so many eBooks.

P.S. I just looked in the HowTo forum, and discovered that there are also HowTo's by other authors. Therefore, in your compilation, could you please include these other HowTo's as well? Thanks :)

pdf is balls, Adobe is a bloated program when it just comes to reading pdf's. Also, it's very hard (I havent discovered how to) copy/paste something from a .pdf.
I'd like to see in chm too, that way I could even integrate it into Dreamweaver :D

Andreas 08-01-2005 12:43 PM

Sorry, no CHM from me.
And with this post I am also denying anybody else the right to pack my How-TOs into a CHM.

But I might do a PDF :)

Ah.. I see. I was just going to ask you about it :)
What's the reason for the denying, if not a secret?
Revan is right - Adobe Viewer for PDF is too bloated.. :(

Andreas 08-01-2005 12:49 PM

Reason = I don't like MS too much :)
