Documentation Issue

EvilDavo · Post by **EvilDavo** » Fri Feb 19, 2010 3:49 pm

Pre-irrlicht 1.7, documentation was provided via chm.
I found this very useful.
Then it was changed to a html equivalent.
I know it's a more common standard but I really don't see the advantage.
I find myself sorely missing the contents - for easy navigation,
the index especially and the search.
You can't do any of these things through an internet explorer.
Well... you can do a search with windows within the doc folder, but that's just annoying.

Is there a free way for me to get my beloved chm version,
or is there perhaps a better way to make use of the htlm version provided in the sdk?

IMHO

you can also check out the download section, there is a package with instruction for making the chm on your own !!!

Thanks for the advice.
Acki's kit for making irrlicht docs seems extremely useful.
I'll give it a go
