Hi, Yves - there is a subdirectory of the Dyalog installation directory named "help", for example:

C:\Program Files\Dyalog\Dyalog APL-64 16.0 Unicode\help

In there you will find PDF versions of all the manuals (i.e. up to date and searchable) and a local copy of the help system in a file called dyalog.chm.

Alternatively, from within the IDE you can press F1 when the cursor is over or immediately to the right of a language element of interest, and the relevant section of the help system will open for you.

Hello Richards,
under windows, you're right.

i forgot : my question is under macOS.

Yves

Hi Yves,

On our Mac and Linux versions, you may be able to find a help subdirectory with pdf files where Dyalog is installed.

On Mac, try here:
/Applications/Dyalog-16.0.app/Contents/Resources/Dyalog/help/

On Linux,
/opt/mdyalog/16.0/64/unicode/help/

Regards,

Vince

Dear Vince,

i find

/Applications/Dyalog-16.0.app/

and nothing else.

it is necessary to do a right-click on the name of the app, and choose "Aff the content". After, you go down inside the application and navigate like you say.

Thank you for your help.
