MixW HTML Help |
|
MixWHelp is in a format called HTML Help. Each new MixW program release package contains the current "Overview of MixW" module of MixWHelp. MixW HTML Help has four additional modules and you can download and use any or all of the modules as you need them. Download the .zip version of these files by clicking on the file names in the table below, and unzip the files into the MixW program folder. NOTE: Windows XP may mark the unzipped (.chm) files as a security risk. If you are not able to access a downloaded and unzipped file, right click on the .chm file. Then left click on Properties at the bottom of the menu. In the Properties dialog box look at the bottom for a statement like: "Security: This file came from another computer and might be blocked to help protect this computer". Click the Unblock button beside that statement, and then click the Apply and OK buttons.. Repeat for each .chm file that will not open. This table, along with a more complete explanation of using MixW Help is included in the "Using MixWHelp" topic in the "Overview of MixW" module. |

These same zip files are also available in the Files section of the MixWHelp reflector. To download from the reflector site, and to be notified when new files are uploaded join the MixW Help reflector at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/MixWHelp/. Thanks to Stefaan Dehaemers, ON6YN, there is now a PDF file available which contains all 5 sections of MixW Help (version 2.17). The file is 170 pages long, but with the PDF format you can print only the pages you want to print. To download the 3.12 MB file click on: http://k6ix.net/MixW/MixW Manual.pdf. |
