Help opens a topic screen that, in the window’s right
pane, gives a brief description of Paint and provides
different ways for accessing the program, including
through use of a hot link (Paint).
Not every Help topic contains a hot link to start the
program it is talking about. However, when you do
encounter one, it provides a convenient way to start the
program to look at while you read about the program in
the Help topic.
