How do I add help text to cards?

For example, if I wanted to describe an ability or a keyword how do I attach it to a particular card or set of cards?

You can add the help text through localised text files much like adding your own text for a multiple choice question. Check sumos, TFMs, or kevs DLCs for examples (I think TFMs is in his"Others" wad in the TFM_HELP_UI_TEXT or something like that. Adding it to a card is similar to adding the help text for other keywords. You can just search one of their card wads for a keyword currently not in the game like scry or scavenge. The code to add the help text is typically at the very bottom outside of any ability blocks.
I can be of actual help when I get home.
