Help With The Help Manual

The $ is not part of the command. Sorry for the confusion. If you type:
yelp ghelp://openshot it should open up the help file after those errors.
yelp often outputs messages like that, but still should open up the help
file.

Thanks,

Ok, I tried typing "yelp ghelp://openshot" and it opened the Help Browser but an error message popped up and said

"The requested URI "ghelp://openshot" is invalid"

Any ideas?

If the package installed correctly, you should have the following file:
/usr/share/gnome/help/openshot/C/openshot.xml

If so, you can launch the help by this command also:
yelp ghelp://usr/share/gnome/help/openshot/C/openshot.xml

If that file is missing, then please double check you have installed the
package in Synaptic correctly. Good luck.

I had installed Openshot with the PPA in terminal. So I looked in Synaptic Package Manager and searched for "Openshot" and found that "openshot-docs" was not selected. Thank you for the help and guiding me through this.
