HelpScribble 3.5.2 * 13 March 1998
Copyright (C) 1996-1998, by Jan Goyvaerts.
HelpScribble is a program to create Windows Help files,
without the need of a word processor.
It has everything a great help authoring tool needs:
* Good installation/uninstallation program
* Easy to use interface:
* List of topics can be permanently visible
* No need to mess with heaps of dialog boxes
* ...
* Built-in editors for:
* Browse sequences
* Secondary windows
* WinHelp macros
* Win95-style contents files
* Segmented HyperGraphics (SHG) or hotspot bitmaps
* Can create Windows 3.1 and Windows 95 help files
* Export your help projects:
* Create a printed manual right from your help project:
HelpScribble will write an RTF file from your help text,
without any links, footnotes, etc.
Then load this file into your DTP program, brush it up a little
and print it.
* Save the project to HPJ and RTF files so people who do not have
HelpScribble can edit them too.
* Import help projects
* If you have previously used another help authoring tool, you can
import those projects (HPJ and RTF files) in HelpScribble
* Online help, created with HelpScribble
* ...
For Borland Delphi programmers, it has some more interesting features:
* HelpScribble parses your source code to make documenting your
VCL component very easy! It can extract the comments from your source
files and use them as the default descriptions.
* HelpScribble's HelpContext property editor integrates in Delphi 1, 2 and
and also in C++Builder.
* Double-click on any HelpContext property in the Object Inspector
and manage your help topics directly from within Delphi.
* It can display a tree of all the components on your form
with their help topics. Very handy!
* HelpScribble can do syntax highlighting on the sample code
in your help file.
To install it, simply unzip the zip file and run Setup.exe
If you also install the Delphi or C++Builder property editor,
you will have to add HelpCtx.dcu (put in the Delphi\Lib directory by default)
to the component library manually.
See online help for more information.
If, due to some unimaginable reason, you would not like HelpScribble, you can
uninstall it from the Control Panel or by running Setup.exe again.
* HelpScribble requires Windows 95 or NT4
* You will also need a help compiler to build the .hlp file from your text
If you don't have one, you can get it at http://www.tornado.be/~johnfg/
You can freely distribute the unregistered version of HelpScribble, as long
as it is done by copying the original, unmodified zip file.
If you have any problems, you can contact the author at jg@ping.be
The latest version can always be found at http://www.ping.be/jg/
