Set up your build system

Help is normally installed into the /usr/share/help/locale/HELP_ID directory.

Add the following lines in the file configure.ac:

YELP_HELP_INIT
AC_CONFIG_FILES([
help/Makefile
])

Add the following line to the Makefile.am:

SUBDIRS = help

Add a help/Makefile.am, it should list the help files in your project that you want to install:

@YELP_HELP_RULES@

HELP_ID = applicationname

# Media files
HELP_MEDIA = \
	figures/icon.png

# Help pages
HELP_FILES = \
	index.page \
	introduction.page \
	anotherpage.page

# Translated languages, blank if no translations exist
HELP_LINGUAS = en_GB
