 Posted: Mon Sep 24, 2007 7:56 pm Post subject: AutoHotkey CHM file - created with what? |
 |
|
This seem to be the most appropriate place (or the least inappropriate anyway...  ) for this off-topic.
Does anyone know, and care to share (without it being considered as an advertisement) - in what CHM software the AutoHotkey CHM file was created?
The help file for AHK is my favorite help file of all times (with the exception of the ancient Perl.hlp), and while it is obvious that the writer (human) had a lot to do with it, I guess the software helped a little (indexing and styling wise).
Curious. |

Did you searched the forum for CHM? Or the Web... There are some tools to make such file, most notably a Microsoft one, which is free if I recall correctly. The link to it should be somewhere in the forum.

Thanks both.
I actually did search, but did not come across the link in the forum nor the link to MS one - didnt know there is a microsoft one.
Will redo the search.
I am not interested in a free one necessarily - I already bought one (Abee eBook Creator) |

Out of curiosity were do you search? Yahoo?? LOL.
Microsoft HTML Help Downloads gives a link to the official CHM maker, although I don't think it's very good.

a) open the AHK (offline) Help/manual.
b) right click at its left topmost titlebar icon
c) select 'About HTML Help ...'
d) feel ashamed
e) feel free to search for your BoBo voodoo puppet, just to stick some needles to appropriate body parts (oouuch  ) to let me know what you thought about my advise  |

Thats the About of the Help Display Control, not the generator of the CHM file.
But I might look for that Voodoo puppet anyway. |

Tested, and I agree. It leaves all the hard work to the developer.
The other tools (so far, Abee is my favorite) are doing most of the work for you - drag the HTML folders, and press F9 to generate. |
