Where should the extracted HTML hlp files be placed? You say the same directory, but which one? The root of HAPEdit? Gypsum blue was able to 'get it' but I haven't been able to so far. How about fonts? I noticed that there are no selection when you pull the font window? Thanks for a great editor, I'm just learning how to use it now. I'm coming from a very low skill background so it's understandable that I'd have trouble but others more expereiced would not.
