Hey guys, I was looking for some things related to the DinkC language and found these 2 files:

http://www.dinknetwork.com/file/dinkc_reference_windows_help_file/
https://www.dinknetwork.com/file/dinkc_help/ (this one was even released BEFORE the actual Dink Smallwood game )

The problem is that they are useless on modern OS, starting with Win 8. The hlp files included are just not working on the new versions of Windows help and even if you download a WinHlp program and try to open those files manually the system will not allow you to do so.

Is there any way that these files can still be used? If not, then maybe they could be converted to another format that would be more up-to-date?
