Description O Kullmann 2003-06-20 20:19:58 UTC

Version:           1.0 (using KDE 3.1.1)
Installed from:    SuSE
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3 20030226 (prerelease) (SuSE Linux)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.20-4GB

In the help menu, when clicking on 

"Handbuch kviewshell"
(handbook kviewshell)

then only help on the KHelpCenter appears
(which actually is quite postmodern --- no content
anymore, only self-references).
Same with 

"Hilfe zum kdvi pluging"
(help with kdvi plugin)

I expect to see the special handbooks on kviewshell and kdvi.

There are manuals for both kview, and kdvi, and either of selecting them directly 
from within KHelpCenter, or running 'help:/kview' or 'help:/kdvi' does as 
expected, and displays those manuals. 
 
This seems to be nothing we can solve from the docs side, but rather related to 
the way KView works, so, reassigning there.  (If it's of any use, I know both Kate 
inserts a help -> plugins manual, and kword a help -> thesaurus, based on 
what's installed, perhaps this is something kview could be wrestled into doing.   
 
In a perfect world, it would know what is currently loaded and just display the 
help for it, but in this imperfect world, offering each installed manual explicitly in 
the menu would be better than nothing.
