           Summary: wireshark in linux does not provide way to open user
                    guide locally
           Product: Wireshark
           Version: 1.4.0
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Low
         Component: Wireshark
        AssignedTo: wireshark-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: pva@xxxxxxxxxx


Build Information:
Version 1.4.0rc1

Main screen in wireshark presents button: User's Guide (local version, if
installed). But looking into sources I'm not sure if it's possible to open
local version of user's guide in linux at all. The relevant code is surrounded
with

#ifdef HHC_DIR

#endif 

that works only at windows since there is:

#ifdef HHC_DIR
#include <windows.h>
...
#endif

So either local version, if installed should be dropped, or we need some way to
supply path to local documentation... (better with configure switch)
