Adding documents to the help system

SCOhelp system directory structure

All SCOhelp system files are located in the /usr/lib/scohelp hierarchy, organized by language. Under each language, the files are divided into subject areas or books; man pages are located in a separate man directory at this level.

Here is a diagram of the directory structure of the SCOhelp system:
