Update bundled SDK's DocMaker help file

The current version of the help file that ships with the PureBasic SDK on Windows is seemingly from 2005 (about as old as me!). I thought this was the latest documentation until I was poking through the PureBasic open source projects, and found the docs for the new version. This is amazing, I'm now going to start using DocMaker for myself! But, can the bundled SDK documentation be updated? It's not a massive deal, but would be nice I think, make it way more clear that it's still updated and how stuff works.

If I understand right, you mean the 'Readme.txt' file in the 'PureBasic/SDK/DocMaker' drawer. This is something which isn't present/updated in our 'PureBasic SVN', so only Fred himself can update that file... but you're right, some smaller things (PB version...) should probably be updated.

Hi Andre,
No, I mean the documentation for V 5.0 of DocMaker, written in 2021. See these two links:
1. https://github.com/fantaisie-software/p ... -Help.html
2. https://github.com/fantaisie-software/p ... -Tags.html

You're right, but that's something for Fred... the mentioned files are not included in the PB package (PureBasic/SDK/DocMaker/...), only the Readme.txt file from 2008.

I didn't even know about the mentioned 'DocMaker-Help' file on GitHub myself (it's not included in our SVN for the PB docs editors).
While there is a 'DocMaker-Tags' file on SVN from 2016...
