... and thus use of F1 key to get help is not operative...
Too bad since a quite good help file actually exist and is available in the .chm format....

Ah yes, the default handler for F1 had been left in the code.  I've removed it.  I think way back when (this is all the way back to Win3 probably) a press of F1 would try to launch a file named the same as the exe, but with HLP on the end.  That's been replaced by CHM ... and now that format is also almost dead which is a shame, as it's quite neat.
