Q44754: "longjmp" Incorrectly Spelled "longjump" in QC Advisor Help

The QuickC Version 2.00 on-line help system misspells the longjmp()
function in one location as "longjump". Selecting the word from this
location will not produce the help screen for longjmp().

The misspelling occurs on the screen that can be reached with the
following sequence of help selections:

    Help -> Contents -> Functions -> Miscellaneous

The function name appears to be spelled correctly in every other case,
and requests for help on "longjmp" while in the Edit Window function
perform as expected.
