A basic simple integrated help system.

A flexible and easy system to display short help messages for the User Interface and menu commands.

Description:

To improve the usability of the simulation and to cut the edge of the learning curve will be greatly appreciated the availability of a small integrated help and training system.

Having the FR2 should be relatively easy to create plain text files with a short description of the menu commands.

These descriptions should be provided with references to Celestia URL’s or directly with LUA scripts. These scripts could show to the user as example the effects of the command in some meaningful situations.

The scripts themselves should display messages that should be kept in Multilanguage files. The descriptions of commands should be excerpted from the available User’s Manual.

Required/Suggested:

  FR1 Multiplatform UI;

  FR2 Multilanguage;

  LUA Scripts.
