They are used in several contexts:Readdle Docs guide: some of these files use a ZIP archive to bundle HTML documentation. The content is similar to a web page that you can view offline. For more details, visit the Readdle site. AmigaOS help file: some are hypertext help files used in the AmigaGuide system. They contain structured text with hyperlinks. Game installation guide: some serve as installation instructions for software and games. FilExt.com notes: These files may be compressed (using ZIP) or use custom internal formatting. You can often open a zipped GUIDE file with a standard archive tool and view the HTML (or text) content in your web browser or a specialized viewer. For AmigaOS help files, an AmigaGuide reader is needed.
