Team's Response

Thank you for bringing this issue up to our attention! However, we believe this issue is not within scope of our current iteration.

Firstly, our HELP feature intends to provide users the URL link to our User Guide. It is not within the scope of our project to help users traverse to the User Guide using CLI.

Secondly, when users navigate to the User Guide, they would still need to use their mouse to scroll through the commands and features anyway. Allowing users to directly navigate to the User Guide through CLI is thus of a lower priority as it only saves the users negligible time. Hence it would be relegated to future iterations.

Lastly, the users can copy the URL directly using their keyboard by pressing Enter key, without having to use their mouse. Therefore, the HELP feature technically allows users to interact with the link using keyboards, as intended for CLI users.

We appreciate your feedback still, and hope to improve the HELP panel in the future!
