A 'help instance' is created to manage on-line help associated with one or more files. wxCLIPS supports both Windows Help under MS Windows, and wxHelp under all platforms.
Windows Help (.hlp) files may be created using a number of tools, such as Tex2RTF. wxHelp (.xlp) files can be created with a text editor or a tool such as Tex2RTF.
wxHelp is very limited in its capabilities and should only be used on platforms with no native help. Consider using HTML files instead (although you cannot currently access HTML files from your application).
