[Dev-C++] offline C++ winhelp

[P.T. W. M. <pt...@ea...>]

Hi,

I'd like to find some downloadable C++ help that I can reference offline, 
preferably something I can integrate into the Dev-C++ help menu like a 
windows help file, so that I have a function reference available.

Not being familiar with what functions are available and their proto types 
is slowing me down.  All I have found so far is online docs, which are no 
help with a 56K modem that's offline.

Thanks, Patrick

Hello Patrick,

You might want to check out this site:
http://htmlhelp.berlios.de/books/chm.php

 Documentation of common GNU/Unix utilities converted in Windows' Compiled
HTML Help (CHM) format.
It has documentation for gcc, libc, libstd++ and many other goodies. :-)

Best Regards,
Yeoh

You mean something like Micro$oft platform sdk?

Thanks, this was something I hadn't even thought of yet, mostly because I'm 
still learning how to crawl in C++.

Thanks again,

Patrick
