Igor,

Below are the instructions for loading PetitParser manually. NBHelp
needs PetitParser.
The Monticello configuration needs to be adapted so that it works fine
for Squeak as well.
I don't know how to do that.

Attached is the changeSet for the two font fixes.

Note: The instructions are in Markdown notation as the NBHelp pages.
To view the text formatted you might want to use

Add two font fixes for Squeak 4.3
-------------------------------------------




    NBHelperStyler>>
    headingStyle: level
	| size font fontNo |
			
	(Smalltalk includesKey: #LogicalFont)
		ifTrue: ["for Pharo" 		
			size := self defaultFont pointSize.
			size := size
				* (#(2.0 1.5 1.4 1.25 1.0 ) at: level).
			font := LogicalFont familyName: self defaultFont familyName pointSize: size]
		
		ifFalse: ["for Squeak"
			      fontNo := #(3 2 1 1 1) at: level.

		ifTrue: ["for Pharo" codeFont := StandardFonts codeFont.]
