Text errors in installed chm help

Original Reporter info from Mantis: Simon Ameis @SAmeis
  • Reporter name: Simon Ameis

Description:

There are some text erros within the chm help which is installed with the official rpm-packages from Sourceforge.

  • The libraries are named "(FCL) Free Component Library" and "(RTL) Runtime Library". But LCL documentation is named "lcl"; this should be "(LCL) Lazarus Component Library". I suggest to place the abbreviation at the end like "Runtime Library - RTL"
  • The item "lazutils" isn't very descriptive. This may be due "laztuils" isn't a very descriptive package name. "Lazutils package documentaiton" would me more descriptive. There is also a typing: it is named "lazutils" in contents but "Lazutils" on the package's starting page.
  • The "Table of Contents" is merely a duplicate of the "Contents" pane of the chm viewer. Furthermore it doesn't even contain all items which are included in the chm's table of contents. Therefore this item should be removed at all.
  • The item "User's Guide" should be renamed to "Free Pascal: User's Guide". This chm package is distributed with Lazarus and therefore a user may expect a user help for Lazarus which is not included at all.
  • The forementioned point also applies to "Reference Guide" where "Language Reference Guide" which would match the contents of this sections.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Install RPM packages
  2. place cursor on identifier (e.g. TObject)
  3. Press F1
  4. See 'contents' of the chm help
