SCVIM(1)						      General Commands Manual							  SCVIM(1)

NAME

       scvim_make_help - strip SuperCollider HTML help to text, for use with scvim

SYNOPSIS

       scvim_make_help [options]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the scvim_make_help command.

       scvim_make_help	is  a  script that strips SuperCollider HTML help to text format, for use with scvim. Users do NOT normally need to invoke
       it, since it is called by the main scvim script upon first run.	The stripped files are placed in ~/.scvim by  default,	but  this  can	be
       overridden by specifying SCVIM_CACHE_DIR environment variable.

OPTIONS

       A summary of options is included below.

       -s --source-dir directory
	      Specify the soruce directory to search for HTML help files.

       -d --dest-dir directory
	      The Destination Directory for the processed Help Files.

       -c --clean
	      Clean the Destination Directory before building the helpfiles.

       -f --force
	      Do not prompt to see if the user is sure about deleting files.

       -h --help
	      Show summary of options.
