This is a recommended upgrade for anyone using the online help
replacement, because it allows you to apply fixpacks (fixes a crash in

service.exe).

V2.13.4

Language files are now called newview_<lang>.lng so that they can be in
the same directory as other programs using .lng files (e.g. AE).  This
means that you cannot use them on FAT systems (the filenames are too long
for FAT).

 - Fix for crash in OS/2 Service (fixpack tool) 
   and other 16-bit applications
 - Fix to close help when applications closed
 - If a Windows .hlp file is opened, optionally
   start Windows Help viewer
 - Turn left panel on and off
  - Double click on sizebar, or View menu
  - Defaults are set in Options
 - Fix for double-quotes when online help file 
   specified by a program.
   (eg. PMView installed in a directory with spaces in the name)
 - A memory corruption fix
 - Fixed some small errors loading translations
 - Speed improvements at startup
 - Search matching adjusted
 - Progress bar on global search is correctly positioned
   when dialog resized
 - Updated Czech translation from Michal Pohorelsky

NewView is a free replacement for the original OS/2 or eComStation online
help system. 

Major enhancements are:

 - New user interface (split window)
 - Select and copy direct from window
 - Easy to use global (all files) search
 - Remembers size & position
 - Most recently used files list
 - Smooth scrolling display
 - Current topic always highlighted in contents
 - Can go forward as well as back in history
 - Options for fonts, colors and more
 - Annotate help files
 - Bookmarks
 - Fully resizeable
 - Automatic web, ftp and email links
 - Drop files to open
 - Open additional files
 - Automatic language selection
 - Automatic index creation 
 - Enhanced file dialog with help file titles
