- There is quick terminal/ headless/RP2040 compatible version
So output to VGA screen would be quite ugly, while somehow usable still.

help_console_RP240_headless_20250416.zip

- Now all keyboard sents should work ok through terminal (no need external keyboard)
Will not return path however. Have no any ideas how to do it, yet.

You can change pair of vars to your taste at the beginning of prg. if you want:

Dim integer max_prn_lines=29 ' for terminal height
Dim integer def_LineWidth = 80 ' for terminal width

p.s. forgot to mention
if you already has copied all help files held in dir 'hlp'
there should be no need to rewrite everything, only -> help.bas
And before saving as library

help
should be coment out of course


help
Sub help




'help
Sub help


Let`s see if it helps
