sorry but 3 points to tell everyone.
1. Millihelp has done only 1 post (this here)
2. in the Zip is only a EXE-File and it seems filled with lot of C-Code (examine 'Lcc' with a hex-editor)
3. On the wep-page is no adress, neither a name or such.
So sorry, Milli-help, i do not trust you.
EXE-only can be dangerous.be aware

I downloaded and installed it, and it doesn't contain any viruses. It seems
to be legit. All it does is open an HTML web page with an image showing
help for the PureBasic command at the cursor -- sort of like pressing F1 in
the PureBasic editor but seeing a PNG instead of CHM file.
As for my opinion, well, it doesn't do much for me personally. The fact
that it's an image means I can't copy-and-paste any of the text on it,
which is a hassle. At least with PureBasic's CHM file you can copy the
flags that you need for gadgets, etc.
It's an ambitious effort, and it looks like a genuine effort by MilliHelp to
write a useful tool for PureBasic coders. For that, he should be applauded.
But as for making it a demo -- well, I'll just take the CHM file, thanks.

Technically - yes, it is. But this thing is not INSTEAD of the regular F1-help - you continue using it as before for learning and detailed explanations. The idea of milliHelp is to let you see a whole lib (roles of its elements, their places, and realations between them) at a single look -that's why images are used. Seeing the whole picture gives you direct access to the infomation (as opposed to the sequential access, when you look through the plain list of procedures looking for one that you need).
So, the purpose of the demo is to ask people: do you find things of this kind usefull or not? That's all.
