A third party Helper Builder system would be very welcome in RevSelect if someone is interested in developing it.
We've got a Rev stack based Help System built within Hemingway, our Content Management System which build websites. Hemingway structures content into the metaphors of File Cabinets, File Drawers, Folders and Folder Items. The Folder Items are the 'atomic' level (.i.e. html, Flash, links, images, text, forms ,etc..) With Hemingway, existing content can be rendered in one of many website templates, including PDF only templates. It can also export the content as .zip with included XML schema. This schema can be read by HemMedia (a Hemingway plugin) and can automatically build a traditional Help stack, with TOC and Indexed Search-- as seen in ButtonGadget, Hemingway, ThoughtOffice and other apps we create. The neat feature is the fact you only enter data once, and then render it out as PDF, HTML and Help stack. It's been a great tool. With it we've been able to document our projects online, at at the end create fully TOC'd PDF files and now, help files as well. You can see an example at: (the web version of Hemingway Docs:) http://www.altuit.com/webs/docs/HemMedia/AboutHemMediaplugin.htm (the PDF version of the Docs:) http://www.altuit.com/webs/docs/HemPC/HemPCRefMan.pdf and for the Stack version of the docs: you can enter into the message box: go decompress(URL "http://www.gadgetplugins.com/hempc/HemHelp.hmy.gz";) The PDF and Stack versions may take a bit to download. _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
