20.2 Running HELPMAKE

The following sections describe HELPMAKE syntax and options for encoding a Help file, decoding or deconcatenating a Help file, and getting Help on HELPMAKE. Some options apply only to encoding, others apply only to decoding, and a few apply to both.

The following are some general rules for syntax:

Options are not case sensitive. Precede each option with either a forward slash ( /) or a dash (–).

You can specify a path with a filename. Separate multiple filenames with spaces or tabs. Where multiple files can be specified, you can use wildcard characters (* and ?).
