Help files

#1 Post by AimHere » 22.01.2017, 15:47

Hi,

When new versions of FCXE are released on the donors site, it's not clear whether the help files have also been updated. I never know whether I should bother downloading and installing the help file again.

I was wondering, are the help files ALWAYS updated every time a new release comes out? If not, would it be possible to mention the date of the most recent update for the help files, either next to the file on the downloads page or incorporated into the filename?

Thanks,
Aimhere

(P.S. - it would be really helpful [see what I did there?] if the help files were incorporated into the program installer, which would remove any doubt. But since the individual .chm files seem to be almost as big as the program download itself, and there are multiple languages to deal with, I guess I can understand why they aren't included. Still, maybe at the least the English help ought to be bundled with the program?)

It would be very helpful if the help file download page had a Modified Date next to each of the help zip files.

Currently we have to download the help file to see if it has been updated.

You would be surprised, but at http://freecommander.com/en/languages there is a Modified column (it is the last column and it is there since time immemorial) next to the each language and help file.

Yes, at http://freecommander.com/en/downloads/ there is no any additional info to help files.

Sorry, I was referring to the Donor Downloads page with the help files listed at the top.

:oops:
