        Using the Help Feature

                      Have you ever opened a new window in a program you were just
                      trying to learn and wondered what a certain button was supposed to
                      do? Or maybe you just couldn't quite remember the purpose of one of
                      its menu options? Becoming familiar with a new piece of software can
                      certainly keep you hopping between working with your computer and
                      thumbing through your manual. What if you could just click on a
                      button and it could tell you what it did?

                      Say no more! In essence, The PatchMeister has an on-line manual that
                      you can access while the program is up and running. Here's how it
                      works...

                      If you want help, press the <HELP> key.

                      YouÕll find that the cursor will change into a question mark. This
                      signifies that you are in help mode and The PatchMeister is waiting to
                      see what you want help about If you want to know what a button
                      does, click on it. If you want to know what the <ESC> key does, press
                      the <ESC> key. If you have a question about a menu item, select it.
                      When you are in help mode, normal processing is suspended and
                      instead you will receive help text pertaining to the action that you just
                      performed. It's as simple as that!
 
                      When you are done reading the information, you can close the Help
                      window or hit the <HELP> key to re-enter the help mode and get
                      information on another topic. If you like, you can use the Project menu
                      Print item to print the contents of the Help window.
