The VED `help' command invokes files which more compact descriptions of Pop-11 facilities, without lengthy tutorial introductions. The following gives an overview of help files:
HELP HELPFILESThere are many hundreds of help files giving information about error messages, system utilities, editor procedures, system concepts, syntax, data structures, arithmetic, the pattern matcher, library facilities (e.g. expert system tools), Poplog process initialisation, how to tailor the system, etc. There are also `news' files summarising the main recent developments.
For the Prolog and Lisp subsystems there are also collections of help files, though not as many.
