Quick reference query app
The help in the Prime is an indispensable addition to allow users to use the Prime calculator and it is quite complete but the search is so clunky and the tree is a pain to navigate then I just made a very simple app to quickly search the help already available as spreadsheet:

Download alpha (reference from 2014-05): http://cl.ly/2O410M0Z2k2q (it might contain invalid chars)
Download (reference from 2013-11): http://servicios.ried.cl/primecomm/PrimeHelp.zip (src)

This will be bundled inside PrimeComm (and available from start menu soon) but you might find it useful to have a very quick reference while you are in the pc while isn't bundled in the other app.

RE: Quick reference query app
Nice that you liked the little app, now it's included in PrimeComm as a singleton app. Just press ALTGR + . (global shortcut) or F1 inside PrimePad Big Grin

Just a quick note for those of us who do not have an AltGr key: AltGr is the same as Ctrl+Alt. So when you're running PrimeComm, if F1 doesn't bring up the help app (it usually does), just press [Ctrl]+[Alt]+[.] or use the Help menu.

Thanks again, Irwin! PrimeComm is pure awesomeness.

RE: Quick reference query app
No ALT-GR? :O and how do you enter extended ascii codes? (I was working recently with an aussie thru teamviewer and I told him to enter the degrees symbol º and his keyboard didn't had that! so it seems the spanish keyboard layout was so sweetly designed for coding, all the braces, accents for SQL vars, etc Big Grin )

PS: f1 is handled by the app menu, and altgr+. is handled by windows (not a service or something dirty wasting system resources, just a normal explorer shortcut)

RE: Quick reference query app
I added the new help reference to the app in the first message. I marked it as alpha because I have yet to fix the special unicode chars.

RE: Quick reference query app
Here is a pdf version of Erwin's extract that I find easier to view and search on tablets etc. Slightly tidied up so refer to the calculator original to check if anything seems out of order.

Cheers, Terje
