DESCRIPTION

The hyperguide.datatype is used for displaying AmigaGuide and HyperGuide documents using the hypertext.datatype base class. It provides many features, which aren't available in the original amigaguide.datatype like embedding of other datatype objects, real lists and more. All functionality of the base class can be used within a HyperGuide or AmigaGuide document.

From the version 40.20 of the hypertext.datatype it is possible to use all HTDS datatypes for online help using the amigaguide.library. So its now possible and recommended to use the hyperguide.datatype for all your guides including AmigaGuide. This can be done by replacing the original AmigaGuide datatype descriptor from Devs:Datatypes with the AmigaGuide descriptor provided with the HyperGuide distribution.
