About GFAWHELP

The GFAWHELP Windows help file was started a few years ago as a programming help for myself. It has grown considerably over the years as many GFA programmers have contributed routines to the file. Recently a new Windows Message section has been added and also hundreds of examples on calling the Windows API functions from GFA Basic.GFAWHELP has always been freeware and I intend to keep it freeware. In my opinion nothing is more frustrating in learning a new programming language than the extreme lack of examples. This is somewhat understandable as writing a new programming language is a very difficult task and writing hundreds of examples is not economically feasible..Many great GFA programmers have contributed to the GFAWHELP file over the last few years. If you decide to download the file please check out the CREDITS link in the GFAWHELP file or the Special link from the home page.

With the release of GFA BASIC 32 a new Windows help file is currently under developement for the new language. All are invited to contribute GB32 routines to the new help file.

The GFAWHELP web site offers numerous files for downloading that you should find useful. ALL files contain the GFA Windows or the DOS source code. This site is dedicated to helping programmers that are learning GFA BASIC. No files, with the exception of some free Utilities, are accepted for downloading unless they contain the source code.
In case you are wondering I have no connection with GFA Software Technologies. My only purpose is to help you became a better GFA programmer.

If you find a file that is useful to you send the contributor an Email Thank you. Their email address is shown in the download description. GFAWHELP has operable links to all the great Gfa Basic web pages known to me. If you are a Gfa Basic programmer don't miss the Home Pages of Eckhard Renner and Joe Hurst. They supply many source files to download.See the Links page to visit these sites.
