Syntax help.display {itemlist}
Category TCL
Type Verb
Description is called by the "help" command and invokes the Update processor to display the specified D3 document item-id.

If the item-id does not exist, the first item-id in the document is shown. Different views of the on-line documentation are provided by modifying the "help.display" command.

The "help" and "help.access" commands are used as front-ends to determine which item to look up. The difference in "help.display" is that the exact item-id of the item must be known.

Example
Warnings A change was made to the version of "help.display" in version 1.0.3 of EPick. The following four attributes: type, category, see.also and compat were changed to type.lo, category.lo see.also.lo and compat.lo. These are "look-only" versions of their counterparts which include "l" ("look-only") options on their "macro" attributes, so when someone zooms from the d3.doc file into one of the "lookup" files they can not accidentally file something.
Compatibility D3 7.0 AP
