James,

I just got the nightly, and I must say that I find the help-mode in custom to be immensely awesome. I know it's not saying much, but giving it the ability to be edited by the user on the fly makes it possibly the coolest help command in history.

I award you with three internets.

However, I did just now notice that while editing help files, typing seems a bit sensitive. Sort of like the refresh rate is too high.

What kind of memos would you have to remind yourself of? Neutral

If you're not writing additions to the help files, you could, for example, turn the help files into to-do lists.

Glad you like it :)

By the way, if anybody writes any new help pages, or fixes any mistakes in the ones that are there already, please mail them to me so I can integrate them.

It is okay to just zip up and send your whole ohrhelp folder. I have a diff tool that can allow me to spot the new files and sort through the changed ones pretty easily.
