AddAmigaGuideHostA - Add a dynamic node host. (V34)
handle = AddAmigaGuideHostA (hook, name, attrs); d0 a0 d0 a1 AMIGAGUIDEHOST AddAmigaGuideHostA (struct Hook *, STRPTR, struct TagItem *);
This function adds a callback hook to the dynamic node list. A dynamic node allows an application to incorporate context- sensitive or live project data within their help system.
hook - The callback hook. name - Name of the AmigaGuideHost database that you are adding. The name must be unique. attrs - Additional attributes. None are defined at this time.
Returns NULL if unable to add the dynamic node host, otherwise returns a pointer to a handle that will eventually be passed to RemoveAmigaGuideHost() to remove the dynamic node host from the list.
When AmigaGuide attempts to resolve a LINK command, it performs the following sequence of events. Splits the name into a path, a database and a node (only the node is required). Opens the database. Performs the following searches until the node is found: Search the local database. Search the local cross reference list. Search the local dynamic node host. Search the global help file (system help). Search the global cross reference list. Search the global dynamic node hosts.

When a dynamic node host is first added it will receive a HM_FINDNODE message with an onm_Node of "Main". The AGA_HelpGroup attribute will always be zero for this particular message.
