LBR Routines, LBR$GET_HELP, Description

 *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

    LBR$GET_HELP returns all help text in the same format as the
    output returned by the DCL command HELP; that is, it indents two
    spaces for every key level of text displayed. (Because of this
    formatting, you may want to make your help messages shorter than
    80 characters, so they fit on one line on terminal screens with
    the width set to 80.) If you do not want the help text indented
    to the appropriate help level, you must supply your own routine
    to change the format.

    Note that most application programs use LBR$OUTPUT_HELP instead
    of LBR$GET_HELP.
