But it's not just say Ghislers writing style or formatting, but the general look of the old help systems from windows 95 era. i.e. any chm/hlp system appears to be win 3.1 looking, or if not win 3.1, then win 95 looking. As much as I really appreciate simple text documentation with minimal html bloat, I'm thinking more of the professional $250 software app or $99 software app that needs to ship a documentation system that will make people feel satisfied for their dollar. An old win 3.1/win95 style hlp/chm system just seems a bit too cheap. But, I'm nit picking. I do appreciate simple documentation without eye candy crap. -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org http://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
