# Help Menu

The Help menu has only three entries:

- Help
- Index
- About

Help
  Invokes a browser and brings up the fontforge web site.

  If you define the environment variable BROWSER so that it contains the name of the browser you like then FontForge will use that, otherwise it will try to guess something appropriate by looking at your PATH. On CygWin systems browsers that work in the windows world (as opposed to the cygwin sub-system) must be specified by a full path spec.

  FontForge will search for help in either /usr/share/doc/fontforge/ or on http://fontforge.sf.net/.

Index
  Invokes a browser and brings up the index of help topics on the web page.
License
  Invokes a browser to display FontForge's license.
About
  Will display the splash screen again.
