Hi Citizens:

Is it possible to have more than one directory assigned to $HELPDIR 
like it is for $MANPATH?  I have a non-zsh $HELPDIR and that is making 
it impossible to use the zsh run-help on the help files I generated 
with zsh.  The run-help function seems only to work with one such 
directory entry.

Alternatively, can these helpfiles instead be generated as manpages?

Thanks in advance,

Bill

Not without rewriting the run-help function, but of course you're free
to do that.

Heh.  The helpfiles are generated *from* the manpages.  You could do as
is done for the bash builtins and make a lot of links to the zshbuiltins
etc. manual pages, but then you don't get the very specific entries that
are normally found by run-help.
