Thank you for the nice words. It actually was much more work than I thought. Many full paths to non existent folders, links to the wrong folders, missing references to script files plus a lot of other little things. IOW the conversion code has many parts with Strextract() and StrTran() and other trickery.

You may be surprised to hear that the complete VFP9 help solution consists of 8694 separate html files... I used West-Wind Help Builder to unpack the chm that resides on Github, and exported it as a web solution. Then I used VFP9 to fix all the errors.

Regarding the barandy, I will keep that in mind if I ever come to Serbia.

NB! I changed the URL slightly, just in case I ever get tempted to do the same for VFP8 or other versions. It's now https://www.vfphelp.com/vfp9, although the old also works until I delete it.
