The NOTES.HLP file provides an easy way to add your own information
to the QP Advisor.
The NOTES.HLP file is a special ASCII help file that appears in the
help window whenever you press a <Notes> button. Press the ALT+F1 key
to return from the NOTES.HLP file to the QP Advisor.
Note: the chevrons (>>) are special characters to NOTES.HLP. They
are markers the QP Advisor seeks when it loads a specific section of
NOTES.HLP. The chevrons with the name of the section in NOTES.HLP
should not be edited, but you can change any other part of NOTES.HLP.
The NOTES.HLP file contains three parts:
Part Description

Contents screen. This is the part of the NOTES.HLP
file now being displayed.
>>edit Appears when you select the <Notes> button on the
QuickPascal Keys screen.
>>index Appears when you select the <Notes> button on the
Index screen.

following:

help window.
