Hi,
== Abstract
Langhelp creates an index of documents of various programming languages and shell commands.
Languages enables you to search documents instantly in Emacs.
If you are a programmer, then you may sometimes wonder, what is the usage of this function?
If you use Unices, then you may wonder, what is the usage of this command?
Langhelp answers the question INSTANTLY.
Currently langhelp supports languages and commands below.
bison
cvs
libtool
latex
ratpoisonrc
gengetopt
wget
lua
guile
php
texinfo
c++
c
standards
grep
gdb
diff
octave
gauche
python
flex
tcl
m4
sed
screenrc
gzip
perl
emacs-lisp
ruby
autoconf
hurd
el4r
binutils
awk
graphviz-dot
makefile
sh
Langhelp may be the first tool written in EmacsRuby in the world.
In other words, langhelp is an practical example of EmacsRuby script.

== What's new
=== [2005/12/10] 0.9.2 released
* langhelp full index (((%d%)) in langhelp buffer or ((%C-u C-c s%))).
* New class: HTML; create HTML index.
* More config settings. Not only programming languages but also shell commands.
=== [2005/12/03] 0.9.1 released
* Adjust to Ruby1.9.
* Langhelp default key binding (((%C-c s%))).
=== [2005/12/02] 0.9.0 released
Initial release
== Environment
Langhelp depends on some tools.
* ((<Ruby 1.8.2 or upper|URL:http://www.ruby-lang.org/>))
* emacs21 / xemacs21
* ((<el4r 1.0.0 or upper|URL:http://www.rubyist.net/~rubikitch/computer/el4r/>))
I use Debian GNU/Linux and Emacs21.
Langhelp probably works on other GNU/Linux or Unices.
Langhelp also works on Windows(Meadow + Cygwin).
Langhelp does not compete against other document-lookup tools, but langhelp INTEGRATES document-lookup tools.
The more you have tools, the more usefule langhelp is.
=== Langhelp support tools
The following tools are not mandatory but strengthens langhelp.
: various Info documents
Langhelp treats Info documents VERY EASY.
: ((<w3m|URL:http://w3m.sourceforge.net/>)), ((<emacs_w3m|URL:http://emacs-w3m.namazu.org/>))
W3m processes HTML documents.
Emacs-w3m is a WWW browser in Emacs, uses w3m internally.
: Ri
Ri looks up Ruby methods. It is bundled in Ruby distribution.
: ((<Ri for (X)Emacs|URL:http://rubyforge.org/projects/ri-emacs/>))
This tool speeds up `ri' calls.
: ((<luahelp|URL:http://lua-users.org/files/wiki_insecure/users/NormanRamsey/luahelp>))
Luahelp searches ((<Lua|URL:http://www.lua.org/>)) documents.
: ((<Emacs Lisp List|URL:http://www.damtp.cam.ac.uk/user/sje30/emacs/ell.html>))
There are MANY EmacsLisp programs.
: ((<screenrc.el|URL:http://www.rubyist.net/~rubikitch/computer/screenrc-mode/>))
Major mode for editing screenrc.
: ratpoison.el
Major mode for editing ratpoisonrc. It is bundled in ratpoison distribution.
: ((<bm.el|URL:http://savannah.nongnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/*checkout*/bm/bm/bm.el?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/plain>))
Visible bookmarks in buffer.
== Install
First install el4r to run EmacsRuby scripts.
ruby -ropen-uri -e 'URI("http://www.rubyist.net/~rubikitch/archive/el4r-1.0.1.tar.gz").read.display' > el4r-1.0.1.tar.gz
tar xzf el4r-1.0.1.tar.gz
cd el4r-1.0.1
ruby setup.rb
ruby -S el4r-rctool -p
ruby -S el4r-rctool -i
Then install langhelp.
Please execute the following commands.
ruby -ropen-uri -e 'URI("http://www.rubyist.net/~rubikitch/archive/langhelp-0.9.2.tar.gz").read.display' > langhelp-0.9.2.tar.gz
tar xzvf langhelp-0.9.2.tar.gz
When you failed, please download it from the next link.
* ((<langhelp-0.9.2.tar.gz|URL:http://www.rubyist.net/~rubikitch/archive/langhelp-0.9.2.tar.gz>))
Then, install it.
