Oops a bit of miscomunication there then.

Vile - to link to a specific section. do this.

<section_link>Topic</section_link>

proc section_link {} {
	global MV
	source "$MV(helpdir)/$MV(help.file.main)"
	HLP_AvEd
}
</pre>

The above example brings up the Avatar Help section (in the correct language).

Hope this clears up that confustion.

If the quotes and symbols were lost in some html mail reader, let me know and
i'll send you a text file example.

ALSO I noticed you used the same function names in your FAQ as you did in your
personal server help - at least the pindex function. You shouldn't do that.
perhaps findex for the FAQ. It won't "break" anything but it will overwrite
functions and may cause trouble later on in life (erectile disfunction,
diabetes, and anal warts are all caused by this)

Wrong. I'm having troubles linking to specific topics because
OpenVerse.ohlp is one big file with many different subjects.
I am perfectly capable of linking to as many files as needed. My problem
was I wanted to link back from the faq to the specific section creating and
editing avatars. But, as far as I know I cannot do this because its all
OpenVerse.ohp

If there were a situation at all. In my opinion, translating would be
easier to do if somone could work a topic at a time, (it gives them
breaks).

If such a modification was made can we count on it being included? it may
be a simple matter even I can handle.
