Обсуждение: Lots of obsolete docs in pgaccess/lib/help

I notice that pgaccess' help files contain a lot of out-of-date quotes
from the primary documentation files.  This is not good.

It looks like these files were once quasi-automatically generated from
the main files.  Any chance of getting that process put into place
fully automatically?  If not, frankly I'd vote for ripping the pgaccess
help facility out altogether: better people should have to go look at
the real docs than that they should have convenient instant access to
misinformation.

No. For the moment, the Help files were written manually so I think that
they should be updated the same way.
It would be better to me that I'll know what topics are changed so I can
prepare them for the next release.
