138 Online help works only for system routines which are described in the
139 IDL manuals. A function may be specified to access help from other sources.
141 The function must accept four arguments: NAME, TYPE, CLASS, KEYWORD.
142 The Help buffer is current when this function is called, and the help
143 text should be loaded into this buffer. If help is found, the
144 function should return the buffer position which should be used as
145 `window-start' in the help window. Also, the variable
146 `idlwave-help-mode-line-indicator' should be set to a useful string,
147 which will be displayed in the mode line of the help window. If
148 should also set the variable `idlwave-help-min-frame-width' to a
149 positive integer. IDLWAVE will ensure that the help frame is at least
150 that many columns wide. Failure to find help should be indicated by
151 throwing an error.
153 When this variable is non-nil, IDLWAVE will allow the mouse-3 help click
154 for every routine and keyword, even though the item may not be highlighted
155 in blue (indicating the availability of system documentation).
157 The default value for this function is `idlwave-help-with-source' which
158 loads the routine source file into the help buffer. If you try to write
159 a different function which accesses a special help file or so, it is
160 probably a good idea to still call this function as a fallback."
