It would be nice to have an online version of the 4DOS help file. I
would use it, since I wont need to keep opening virtual machines to
read a DOS file.

I meant online, as in a website. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

I don't understand why. If you've got 4DOS, you've got the help file.
And if you don't have 4DOS, why would you want the help file?

I don't understand why. If you've got 4DOS, you've got the help file.
And if you don't have 4DOS, why would you want the help file?"

I have a help file from a previous version as a single file in plain
text. While not complete because of version, it does cover 95 percent
of most versions. I use it on a regular basis because one can do atext
search for keywords that don't lend themselves to either the built in
system nor in an html version if it existed.
