 Replying to [comment:5 devans@…]:
 > OK, so what happens now when you select Help->Contents with glom?
 It's not working, of course, a message is displayed saying that it is not
 supported.

 But …

 When I was trying the X11 version, Yelp was launching if I launched it
 manually, but getting help from Glom i got the same error message … So …
 The same happens with Gnumeric.

 The idea on Mac OS X would be to use the built-in Help, dunno how to do
 though. I did a script once for Gimp, but I can't manage to get it back.
 Gimp use a different system to call the help service.
 But a shell script called Yelp and calling the Mac OS X help should work.
 The help files must be indexed first with Help Indexer, it can open HTML
 or PDF.
 I downloaded the helps files from Gnuemric with a wen sniffer, used Help
 Indexer to index the folder, and opened nicely the root index file in Help
 with all the links working.

 Anyway, all the Yelp decencies à useless. The final port is 4 Gb large,
 but ¾ of them are useless.

 I use esoteric paths for my builds when they are working in the way of the
 Bottles for Wines or CrossOver. Like this the ports are not conflicting
 together.
