Hi,

I tried to add help for keywords by adding a database entry to helpmanager.pas for the "ref" manual (which contains the language keywords).

This seems to work, but the keywords are not routed to the lhelp binary.

How does the helpmanager query lhelp what keywords are available? (ref.chm contains the keywords in the index, based on ref.kwd)

Moreover I was a bit surprised that both lview and lazarus seem to have a double administration of what packages are available. Why is this necesary?

This complicates adding new help databases.
