We had some legacy code in Turbo Pascal 5.5. It missed a module :
texthelp.tpu. I could not find it anywhere .

Does any one has a clue on it ? THanks

Googling a bit will lead you to below link. Which is for TC++ not TP, but it
looks like a .txt helpfile will be converted to a .h + .cpp

So maybe you have the .txt file, and you just need to pull it through a
helpfile compiler (tvhc according to the link) to get the source.
