Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

 <hn>
 
The h tags create sections for the help document. A section is one or more
lines of text that contains information about a topic. Like sections in a
book, each section in a help document has a heading. A section heading is a
word or phrase that indicates the topic.
 
Each section also has a heading level. The integer value n given in the h
tag specifies the section's heading level. A section can contain one or more
sections of a lower level. Each section heading appears in the text of the
enclosing section; that is, the section appears just as for a book──the
section heading starts on a new line and the section text follows
immediately after the heading.
 
A section start with an h tag and ends at the first h tag having the same or
higher level.
 
Parameter  Description
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 
n          Specifies the heading level. The value n can be any integer in
           the range 1 to 9. Heading-level 1 is the highest, 9 is the
           lowest.
 
Example
 
This example uses the h1 and h2 tags to create sections for a help panel:
 
    <help>Copy
    <h1>Purpose<p>
    The Copy command copies files from one directory to
    another, or from one drive to another.
    <h2>Syntax<p>
    Copy filename destination
