Help Authoring Programs

Post by Jim Brammer »

From low to high, here are some I've tried* and a couple I haven't but all seem to be worth replying about...

* Oasis (they have a freeware and a shareware version $19.95)
http://www.interfeb.com/

HelpMATIC Pro ($40)
http://www.harbinder.com/hmpro.html

Windows Help Designer ($79)
http://www.visagesoft.com/whd/index.html

* Visual Help Pro ($189)
http://www.winwareinc.com/visualhelp.html

Help & Manual ($199)
http://www.ec-software.com/hmtour.htm


and the last one - you'll choke when you see the price - sure was a nice big app (can do just about anything), but at that price the best feature was uninstall. I mean, it's help file? We're not programming Mars orbital satellites here...


* ForeHelp 5 ($499)
http://www.ff.com/



All of these are wysiwyg editors. There are lots of MS Word "helper" programs out there but I don't even look at those so I can't comment...
