Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     Arg streamarg Pwbhelp («arg» streamarg «pwbhelp»)

          include more than one line.
 
     Meta Pwbhelp («meta» «pwbhelp»)
          Prompts for a key, then displays Help on the function or macro
          assigned to the key you press.
 
          If you press a key that is not assigned to a function or
          macro, PWB displays Help on the Unassigned function. If you
          press a key that PWB does not recognize, the prompt remains
          displayed until you press a key that PWB recognizes.
