Some docs mention devhelp has been integrated with many > IDEs like anjuta, gide and emacs. Is this done by libdevhelp? Emacs just invokes the binary with a command line argument specifying what to show (glade-3 does the same I think), and Anjuta uses the library. > - How can I add new books to devhelp?

Devhelp uses gtk-doc books, which are created and installed by packages using gtk-doc as API documentation format. I believe there are some scripts out there that can turn other things into gtk-doc books, I don't know if they are updated to work with more recent versions of devhelp. The devhelp file is just an index of all items you can find in the html documentation (functions, structs, etc). Regards, Richard -- Imendio AB, http://www.imendio.com/
