HELP with Blossom Statistics Commands

The HELP command gives general help or specific help for Blossom commands. The command line syntax of the HELP command is:

           HELP
           - or -
           HELP topic

Where topic is the name of the command for which help is sought. The simple HELP command (without a topic specified) lists the topics for which help is available.

For example,

        >HELP

gives Blossom syntax help with a list of all Blossom commands for which syntax help is available, and

        >HELP MRPP

results in help on syntax of the MRPP command.

Additional help is available in the Windows version. The F1 Function Key brings up a Windows Help session for Blossom. The F5 Function Key duplicates the syntax HELP command above. The SHIFT+F5 Function Key brings up the Windows default Web browser with an HTML version of the Blossom User Manual. These help items are also accessible from the Blossom menu bar (Help). The Blossom toolbar help button (with a question mark on it) invokes Windows Help for Blossom.

Alternatively, double-clicking on the installed BLOSSOM\DOCS\BLOSS.HLP file initiates the Windows Help for Blossom and double-clicking on the installed BLOSSOM\DOCS\BLOSSOM.PDF file brings up an Adobe® Acrobat® Reader™ view of the Blossom User Manual (assuming Adobe Acrobat Reader is installed on the computer). The Adobe® Acrobat® Reader™ may be invoked concurrently with either the Console or Windows version Blossom sessions.
