' What It Does:
make whatIs users' life easier

USAGE:
put scripEditorPanel.mel and hjMakeWhatIsEasier.mel to maya_script_path, restart maya

then

source hjMakeWhatIsEasier.mel;hjMakeWhatIsEasier;// because i have many global procs whose name is different than the file name, if you don't source it, the "global" procs won't be visible.this will launch the ui

or you could just run

source hjMakeWhatIsEasier.mel;

The ui will be launched when you select the whatIs menu in the script editor.

you could highlight commands in the lower area of script editor. and run the RMB menu whatIs.
menu has been added to RMB S direction
RMB on the ui also could add current selected commands to ui

open button on the ui will open maya help if it's a command.
if it's a mel proc, it'll try opening the file with ultraedit

modify the ultraedit path or add other script editor executable path if you are using other editor.

it's in getOpenMelWithEditorCmd proc.

NOTES:

I added whatIs menu to script editor RMB, so you could put scriptEditorPanel.mel in maya_script_path to override the default one. the one provided in my rar file is from
maya 2008 sp2 x64 version. you could search

added by han jiang.

it's near line 437

you could also hack your buildScriptEditorCondensedPopupMenus proc in scriptEditorPanel.mel

add my menu under

if (!$isHistoryPopup){

//add my stuff here

// added by han jiang
string $hjWhatIsMenu=`menuItem -parent $parent
//-radialPosition "SW"
-sm 1
-l "What Is"
hjWhatIsScriptEditorMarkingMenu`;

string $cmd = "hjAddWhatIsMenuToScriptEditor(""+$hjWhatIsMenu+"","+$isHistoryPopup+")";


menuItem -e -pmc $cmd $hjWhatIsMenu;

setParent -m ..;





... // these are maya default menus

}
