    Hi there,

    I am looking for a good WinHelp authoring tool of which there are many it seems.

    I'll be honest, i'm looking for a free one but i dont want to go testing loads of them. Is anyone familiar with any of them. I just want to be able to create a new Help File and add to it on an ongoing basis. It would be good to have the normal tree menu structure, and if i could insert images into the content pages.

    Any info here would be great,
    Cheers

    Its been so long since I looked that I couldn't possibly recommend anything, but I do feel you should be warned that the current WinHelp system is going to be off by default in Vista. It will still remain an optional component, but you should also look into writing your help for the new system.

    Thats bummer aint it !?!

    Actually, on hearing that i might just avoid it altogether. Are there any programmes that would be similar, menu system and navigate that to get the content. I suppose like HTML frames, with out the hassle. I knew of one programme called notekeeper but it has been discontinued.
