Comment 1 Martin C. Messer 2001-08-01 18:37:21 UTC

Forgot to mention:

[marty@evelle marty]$ rpm -q epic
epic-4_2000-6

I got it via 'up2date epic'

Comment 2 Tim Powers 2001-08-01 18:54:34 UTC

You need to enter this when you start epic, you may also want to put this in
your config file (if you have one):

/set HELP_PATH /usr/share/epic/help

Comment 3 Martin C. Messer 2001-08-01 20:49:50 UTC

Quite right. Is that a bug or just a required step?

Comment 4 Tim Powers 2001-08-01 20:57:15 UTC

A little of both, but since it can be defined in your config file I don't
consider it much of a problem.
