Comment 1 Edward Rudd 2003-08-22 03:32:50 UTC 
Works fine if I launch from the command line..
ie..
in multi-gnome-terminal (gnome 1 app)
I run help from menu.. above crash results..
however.. in gnome 2 programs it works fine.. OR from command line

yelp ghelp:multi-gnome-terminal..
that works fine..
