Hei,

I would like to know some tools too that are used by others. As OpenJUMP is also lacking a help system (still...).

Things that heard of are:
- docbook
- elml.ch (though not thought for documentation directly but it exports to several formats: pdf/html as it is xml based) - the Sextante built-in help, which is html based too (not sure how much it is tied to java and how easy it is too maintain, but it is a good start).

So Daniel A. if you found something useful, pls. let me/us know. Though - you may have different options with .Net

Hi Dan,

PAGC has its documentation written in text files with markdown markup, which is then converted into various formats (html and PDF via LaTeX in particular) using pandoc: http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/

I know gdal uses restructured text in a similar way.

Do any of you have a preferred open source help authoring tool? We're looking for something to document our projects on web pages - something better than wiki - and also to download and install with software. Must be cross platform, etc. I'd like to use whatever others are using in the OSGeo community for consistency... - Dan
