|||||oy ~~~~~01|Help #####R=== Using the Online Help === This help system has been designed to be read whilst in-game. Printing it off will make it look clumsy and a little difficult to read. Any text in orange/yellow colour is likely to be a hyperlink, and pressing while the link is active (yellow) will take you to the relevant page. Navigate between viewable links by using the left-right keys. Some links also have bracketed letters included in the links. Pressing these letters on your keyboard will activate the link even if it is orange. The help files total over 850 kb, so there is a lot of information. They have been designed to be browsed, but you may be looking for specific information, in which case you should try looking at the alphabetical *****index.txt*0[index]. Here are all the relevant keypresses for navigating the help system. #####GKey | Action ------------------------------------------------------------------- Escape | Leave the Online Help Backspace | Return to previous Help File Space | Advance 1 page (screen) 2, down arrow | Advance 1 line 8, up arrow | Back up 1 line - | Back up 1 page (screen) 6, right arrow | Advance 1 link 4, left arrow | Back up 1 link Return | Activate the selected link # | Go to a specific line (defaults to line 0) % | Go to a specific help file (defaults to help.hlp) = | Highlight lines containing a string (e.g. "word") / | Search for a string (e.g. "word") ------------------------------------------------------------------- There are other sources for help playing ToME.
