[From Edelcom]

I have been using your program for several years now, specially for documenting my large library of Delphi classes and units so that others can use the chm file.

It only now occurred to me that the 'search' tab, when viewing the generated chm file, does not allow searching.

Do you know why this is ? I think this really should work because it's this feature that allows persons, not knowing your code so well, to look up certain routines or classes ( when you know that a routine should exist , but you don't know the name of unit it's in, you should be able to seach for a keyword ).

    Yeah, the search tab is empty.
    it is linked to feature 1206744. In the CHM file, I should index all resources (every name used).

    Any idea when and if this feature request can be implemented ? I am making documentation for my global Delphi library for others to use , but without the search where they can see if the library already contains a function or procedure they might need, the documentation is in chm format is pretty useless.
    I am willing to sponsor you if you like - f.i. if you have a book list on Amazon I will gladly pay a book for the great work you already did.

    I hope this to be finished for end of april.
    Your sponsoring idea is very nice, but I'm just lacking time. As an amateur developer, I just lake time as I'm working on other projects ;)
    I still prefer that you speak about DelphiCodeToDoc to others, or maybe to find developer that want to help me !
    Thx for your support.
