Help content for the current Activity can be viewed in the Activity itself. It will pop up in a window when the user enters the key combination '''ctrl+shift+h'''. If there is no help content for the Activity, an error message will be written to the log. I have used the '''bundle_id''' of the Activity to match it with the corresponding help content file (in html).

Help activity was improved to so as to support localized help content. Before localization content is supported, Help activity was released with the help content in the form of html files, static content including images, css, javascript etc. With localized help content, there will be one set of static content and different html files for each and every language that help content is localized into. I have done mainly two modifications.

helplink is a json file. It includes the '''bundle_id''' of the Activity and the name of the corresponding help content (html) file. This file will be used when viewing help content in the Activity. Following is the current version of helplink.json.
