I am trying to get helm-dash to work on Windows and I want to view the docsets in emacs. Here is what I did so far:
- downloaded ZealPortable (I don't have admin rights)
- downloaded some docs
- pointed
helm-dash-docsets-path
to the docsets folder - activate at least one docset
when I now invoke helm-dash and search for a function, the docset opens in the default browser.
What I want is to view the docsets inside emacs. For that I can set the handy variable helm-dash-browser-func
to eww
.
Problem: eww
is not able to resolve URLs to local files. At least for me. It interprets the c:
in the path as the hostname.
Has anyone ever stumbled upon that issue? Is there a way to solve it? Perhaps a different browser than eww
?
Btw.: I'm using spacemacs but that shouldn't make any difference, should it?
