Hiawatha is some great Software - but i have a little (noob-like) question.
How do i define custom errorpages in a .hiawatha file?

Btw: is there a complete documetation for using .hiawatha-files?

Hiawatha version: Hiawatha v8.2
Operating System: Windows 7 x86

Via the ErrorHandler option. The manual page has all the information you need.

You are kidding me, right?
There isn't much information.
How should it look like?

No, I'm not kidding. There is even an example in the manual page...

Yes, but is doesn't explain it at all. For example, how would I specify a specific html file for it to use? What if I wanted it to link to http://www.thebest404pageever.com/ on 404 errors?

First, after seeing the 404 website you mentioned, nobody ever wants to do that.

The ErrorHandler, as explained in the manual page, only allows you to specify a file in disk. If you want to redirect to another website, try this UrlToolkit rule:

UrlToolkit {
  ToolkitID = 404page
  RequestURI exists Return
  Match .* Redirect http://www.thebest404pageever.com/
}
