Description Mark Wielaard 2007-02-15 09:47:11 UTC 
help in the fhpd only show the summary help, not tab-completion or more detailed
help on any of the commands is available.
Comment 1 Stan Cox 2007-03-19 13:09:05 UTC 
(Fixed with the caveat that I suspect we need some better method to get detailed
help.  Sticking documentation in the source is impracticable. texinfo? other?)

* hpd/SymTab.java (complete): Handle help request<HT>.
(CommandHandler): Add -help to all .handle.
* hpd/UserHelp.java (UserHelp): Improve full descriptions.

(fhpd) help d

defset    down      detach    delete
(fhpd) help down
down [num-levels]
The up (down) command modifies the current frame location(s) by adding
(subtracting) num-levels. Call stack movements are all relative, so up
effectively "moves up" (or back) in the call stack, to a frame that
has existed longer, while down "moves down" in the call stack,
following the progress of program execution.
