Description
This script allows the open Help and Tutorials file in floating windows.
Normally, the help max file is hancored to the working windows. If we closed Max, it's also closes the help. With script Float Open Help, the file help remains open no longer hancored to the Max. Is can also open file .chm, .pdf, .txt, htlm and Web page.
