Thread: Where can I find help files for Code::Blocks

My understanding is the old help files from http://onnerby.se/~daniel/chm/d now longer work for Code::Blocks users who us Windows 7 and above.

Does anyone know where to find Help or CHM files that can be integrated into Code::Blocks. Please post a link if possible.

I know this is probably not a satisfying answer, but have you considered another IDE? Last time I used Code::Blocks it struck me as rather antiquated and cluttered. Visual Studio 2015 or QtCreator (even if you don't use Qt) might give you more satisfaction.

There's also Sublime Text and Atom as well.

No Thank You. Visual Studio any version requires to much drive space and the learning cure is pretty heavy. I prefer Code::Blocks over it any way. QtCreator ??? I've been using CB too long to switch.

It's fine to prefer CB but your mentality itself is dumb. "Using it too long to switch" is the kiss of death of a programmer. If you're a programmer, you change with the times all the time. If your tools can no longer do the job, you no longer use them.

But that's just, like, my opinion, man.

Text editors like Sublime and Atom are very simple to pick up and use and offer a decent amount of the features. The only thing CB has is that it's got a compiler but even then, I never really cared for its interface with regards to setting compiler options.

Have you tried pressing F1 on the keyboard?
