Dash Api Docset Reference Search

This article discusses the problem of not being able to run Apple Doc Helper or a binary after uninstalling Xcode, which impacts using dash documentation on non-MacOS platforms. It suggests Zeal as an alternative solution.

---

on non-macos platforms, use zeal instead.

the core problem is that after uninstallation of xcode, one cannot launch the Apple Doc Helper or some binary afterwards inside the Apple docset under dash documentation folder. the docset can be copied to this folder automatically by dash but without xcode it cannot be opened.
