Since I installed Subclipse, I have not been able to get to Help. I
can't remember the last time I used
Eclipse's help, so I don't think that installing Subclipse is the
problem. Anyway, I am going to reinstall
Eclipse and Subclipse.
Perhaps it is just me, but I like to print off help and sit in a comfy
chair and read. I find that an
application's help system is often disjointed and I find I go to it to
solve specific problems.
I did not know your help was integrated and I found no mention of it on
the website. My bad.
And this is the first time, in my 20+ years of software development,
that I have ever heard of an
application's help system being referred to online help. In my "limited"
experience that has been
reserved for the web.

O.K. I'll buy that. I guess my beef is that deletes are automatically
treated as wanting to be SVN deletes.

Thanks, this should be sufficient. I'll give it a try.

I have no idea that when you said online help that you meant help with
in Eclipse. I thought you meant on the web.
