How to activate this Help into MarkdownHelpViewerDemo Application

Use MarkdownHelpViewer.pas (located into AppInterface folder) in dpr:

  MarkdownHelpViewer in '..\..\AppInterface\MarkDownHelpViewer.pas',

then specify the default file of the help:

  Application.HelpFile := ExtractFilePath(Application.ExeName)+'..\Help\Home.md';

If you have installed the viewer using the provided Setup, the installation folder of the Viewer is registere into:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\MDHelpViewer.exe\Shell\Open\Command so the interface can launch the viewer automatically.

If you don't want to use the provided Setup you can register the location of the Viewer built by yourself and deployed to a specific location, for example:

{$IFDEF WIN32}
  RegisterMDViewerLocation(ExtractFilePath(Application.ExeName)+
    '..\..\Bin32\MDHelpViewer.exe');
{$ELSE}
  RegisterMDViewerLocation(ExtractFilePath(Application.ExeName)+
    '..\..\Bin64\MDHelpViewer.exe');
{$ENDIF}
