I don't know for sure--I haven't tested this--but ":help
add-local-help" uses as an example,

    :helptags ~/.vim/doc

Note that that path ends with the doc directory.  So try this:

    :helptags ~/.vim/ftplugin/foo/doc

HTH,

Hi

Actually, yes, that's what I tried ( :helptags ~/.vim/ftplugin/foo/doc/ ). I typed it wrong in my first post.

But not working.

Sorry for the confusion.

Cheers,

Jose
