  Uncompress the TAR file and extract it into the directory where the files will reside

Along with the documentation build process, RoboHelp generates a MapReport.txt file, which contains a comprehensive listing of the available topic titles, ID numbers, and filenames used in the BASIS product documentation. Developers can use the topic names and IDs with most any application to take advantage of BASIS' context sensitive help, providing a direct link into the documentation. For more information about how to use this file with context sensitive help, see BASIS Offers Context Sensitive Help on the World Wide Web in the BASIS Advantage Magazine.
