appropriate class is aliased to the name wxHelpController for each platform, as follows:
\begin{itemize}\itemsep=0pt
-\item On desktop Windows, wxBestHelpController is used (MS HTML Help or WinHelp).
+\item On desktop Windows, wxCHMHelpController is used (MS HTML Help).
\item On Windows CE, wxWinceHelpController is used.
\item On all other platforms, wxHtmlHelpController is used if wxHTML is
compiled into wxWidgets; otherwise wxExtHelpController is used (for invoking an external

-\func{}{wxHelpController}{\void}
+\func{}{wxHelpController}{\param{wxWindow*}{ parentWindow = NULL}}
Constructs a help instance object, but does not invoke the help viewer.
+If you provide a window, it will be used by some help controller classes, such as
+wxCHMHelpController, wxWinHelpController and wxHtmlHelpController, as the
+parent for the help window instead of the value of \helpref{wxApp::GetTopWindow}{wxappgettopwindow}. You can also change the parent window later with
+\helpref{wxHelpController::SetParentWindow}{wxhelpcontrollersetparentwindow}.

-\func{virtual void}{Initialize}{\param{const wxString\& }{file}, \param{int}{ server}}
+\func{virtual bool}{Initialize}{\param{const wxString\& }{file}, \param{int}{ server}}
Initializes the help instance with a help filename, and optionally a server socket
number if using wxHelp (now obsolete). Does not invoke the help viewer.
\docparam{flags}{This defaults to wxHELP\_NETSCAPE for wxExtHelpController, indicating
that the viewer is a variant of Netscape Navigator.}
+\membersection{wxHelpController::GetParentWindow}\label{wxhelpcontrollergetparentwindow}
+
+\constfunc{virtual bool}{GetParentWindow}{\void}
+
+Returns the window to be used as the parent for the help window. This window is used
+by wxCHMHelpController, wxWinHelpController and wxHtmlHelpController.
+
\membersection{wxHelpController::KeywordSearch}\label{wxhelpcontrollerkeywordsearch}
\func{virtual bool}{KeywordSearch}{\param{const wxString\& }{keyWord}, \param{wxHelpSearchMode }{mode = wxHELP\_SEARCH\_ALL}}
For all other help controllers this function has no effect.
+\membersection{wxHelpController::SetParentWindow}\label{wxhelpcontrollersetparentwindow}
+
+\func{virtual void}{SetParentWindow}{\param{wxWindow* }{parentWindow}}
+
+Sets the window to be used as the parent for the help window. This is used
+by wxCHMHelpController, wxWinHelpController and wxHtmlHelpController.
