The Tools menu

The Help menu
-------------
TODO
The Help menu contains information about higan itself.
- **Documentation**
loads the official higan documentation
in your web-browser.
- **About**
opens the About dialog,
which displays basic information about higan,
including the version number.
The status bar
--------------
TODO
The status bar appears
at the bottom of the main higan window,
while "Show Status Bar" is ticked in the Settings menu.
- FPS
- "Paused" flag
- "No cartridge loaded"
Before any game is loaded,
the status bar displays "No cartridge loaded".
When a game is loaded and running,
the status bar displays the current emulation speeed
in frames-per-second.
For PAL-based consoles,
this should be around 50 FPS for "full speed" emulation,
for NTSC and most portable consoles the ideal speed is 60 FPS,
but the WonderSwan runs at 75 FPS.
If the number is too low,
you may need a faster computer,
or a faster [video driver](#drivers).
If the number is too high,
you may need to [Synchronize Audio](#the-settings-menu),
or you may have pressed the "turbo" [hotkey](#the-configuration-dialog).
The status bar displays "Paused"
if you have pressed the "pause" [hotkey](#the-configuration-dialog),
or if "When focus is lost: Pause Emulation" is ticked
in [the Input tab of the Configuration dialog](#the-configuration-dialog)
and the main higan window is not the foreground window.
To resume emulation,
make sure the main higan window is in the foreground,
and/or press the "pause" hotkey.
