The possibility of having an HTML help system

The capability to activate a help mode pressing a key combination. In this mode the various commands opens an HTML page in the default browser.

Description:

A semi-official Celestia users manual is available from a while (see Frank Gregorio website);

An HTML version of this manual is available on the official Celestia Website too.

Splitting this HTML version in a series of specific pages describing each one the available features and commands, an help system implementations should be almost trivial.

A simple file containing

- an index;

- an HTML url address.

Should be used by Celestia to open the correct HTML help page.

For instance pressing the key combination ALT-F1 the help mode is activated. Then pressing the "C" key the HTML help page about the "center" command is displayed.
