23.4 Using QuickHelp

QuickHelp is a separate application that provides access to any Help file. It uses the same Help files as the Microsoft Advisor and presents information about topics in the same way. QuickHelp is designed for the developer who prefers using command-line utilities or another editor and doesn't have access to the Microsoft Advisor through PWB.

Major utilities that come with Microsoft C/C++ invoke QuickHelp and display related information when you use the /Help option. You can also use QuickHelp from the command line, as explained in the following sections.
