Why is it that when I download some of the files the .hlp files
sometimes come in smcl format which is really useless (rather than as a
neat text to be read in Notepad). What should I do? Can I convert smcl
into text? (setting "set logtype text" does not help; i.e it helps only
when you export your own stata stuff into a text file).

Don't download help files; install them with the ssc command (or net install for items not in the SSC archive). Stata will display them successfully then.
