| Several of the menu items under Help in the client go to Microsoft Support in Version 5.05.
Also, on the "Regular expression matching" page, http://www.gammon.com.au/mushclient/regexp.htm , in the description for [[:cntrl:]], there is an extra 's' at the end of characters. | | Top |

| The help works fine under Windows XP. Later versions of Windows can cause that page to appear if you don't have WinHelp installed.
I fixed the double "ss" in the regexp help file. |

| If anyone else has this problem you can fix it with these instructions, I even used the Windows 8.1 x64 version and it still worked.

| If you can't get help to work for some reason, there is a fall-back of using the MUSHclient_Help plugin which ships with MUSHclient.

That lets you interrogate the same database that the help file is generated from, in the client itself. This could be handy for copy/pasting examples. |
