AmigaZone presents StAHG - A Gift to the Amiga Community
« on: November 17, 2002, 07:33:42 PM »
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE::

Presenting StAHG, The Standard Amiga Help Guide
AmigaZone's FREE GIFT to the world-wide Amiga Community.. (c)2002 The AmigaZone division of Merlancia Industries

AmigaZone  is offering a free utility to the Amiga community. StAHG, the Standard Amiga Help Guide.

You will find StAHG, a description of it, screenshots of it, and a download link to it here::

Go here to download it

(NOTE - stahg.lha was just replaced the morning of 17 November, 2002 with a new version.. check the changes.txt inside the archive for bug fixes.. so if you downloaded it already, go get the newer version)..

StAHG is a simple ReAction based tool created
for the purpose of making an Amiga's collection of help files easier to access. Naturally, the first question to come up is, "What help files?" The
answer is, "Exactly!" Or, if you prefer, all those help files buried deep within the confines of the "HELP:" assign.

Now, AmigaZone is offering a free program that helps to clean that mess up, and in the process takes advantage of an overlooked feature of AmigaOS 3.5 (and above).

StAHG builds a list of all of the documents found in the "Help:" assign and its subdirectories (.doc, .dok, .txt, .guide), then creates "Workbench.guide" in the propor location to satisfy the requirements for the HELP button to open the file in Multiview. Once run, "Workbench.guide" is
available to the OS, and StAHG does not need to be run again (unless you want to update your "Workbench.guide") Directory Opus users may want to note that "Workbench.guide" does not clash with, or override, the Magellen help
system.

StAHG is a free download. This is AmigaZone's gift back to the community for years of their support. Of course we would like you to sign up for AmigaZone as a fully paid member.. We do not, however, require that, in order for you to have StAHG. There are no pop-up advertising windows, as this was just a fun way to remind everyone of the wonderful service we
offer.. and have been offering since the Amiga was born in 1985.

StAHG's Requirements:
AmigaOS 3.5 or higher
AWNPipe
RexxTricks.library
ReqTools
RexxReqtools

Author's note: It's not the end-all of applications, but hey, it's free, right? ;-)

Note: StAHG is Copyright 2002, David Crawford, AmigaZone, and Merlancia Industries.  It is strictly forbidden to re-distribute StAHG.lha on any
other Internet venues, web sites, BBSes, floppy disk, or CD-ROM distributions of any kind, anywhere and/or to charge any money for it, without explicit written permission.. please report any re-distribution
violations directly to me.. User Groups who wish to include it on their "Disk Of The Month" may contact me..

Thanks,

I'm glad someone was able to get some use out of that utility.  For my
next trick, I will write a program to have an Amiga mediate Alabama's
Jerry-Springer Election!  (You would have to have seen it to believe
it)...
