Help Menu

<P>
The Help menu has only a few entries:
<UL>
<LI>
<A HREF="helpmenu.html#Help">Help</A>
<LI>
<A HREF="helpmenu.html#Overview">Overview</A>
<LI>

</UL>
<DL>
<DT>
<A NAME="Help">Help</A>
<DD>
Invokes a browser and brings up contextual help on fontforge web site.
<P>
If you define the environment variable
<A HREF="cliargs.html#BROWSER">BROWSER</A> so that it contains the name of
the browser you like then FontForge will use that, otherwise it will try
to guess something appropriate by looking at your PATH. On CygWin systems
browsers that work in the windows world (as opposed to the cygwin sub-system)
must be specified by a full path spec.
<P>
FontForge will search for help in either /usr/share/doc/fontforge/ or on
http://fontforge.sf.net/.
<DT>
<A NAME="Overview">Overview</A>
<DD>
Invokes a browser to bring up a page describing basic concepts you should
understand before working on fonts.
<DT>
<A NAME="Index">Index</A>
<DD>
Invokes a browser and brings up <A HREF="IndexFS.html">the index of help
topics </A>on the web page.
<DT>
<A NAME="About">About</A>
<DD>

<DT>
<A NAME="License">License</A>
