Hi all.... there's been some recent traffic about how to write Help files without the expense of buying an RTF word processor. I just discovered a hypertext authoring program called 'Xantippe' which enables you to build hypertext documents, jump around them and so on, but also to save what you create as an RTF file, which you can then feed into HC. It seems to do a basic job, but doesn't handle the fancier aspects like build tags. Still, if you don't want to be fancy, $15 for the shareware might be just the thing. I can't post to cica coz I don't have FTP access, so if anyone wants a copy, either email me, or contact the author (Rodney Lai, IRIS Media Systems) on (415) 256 4673, somewhere in California. julian -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Julian Templeman Baker Jardine & Associates Tel: +44-81-371-5644 London SW6 4TJ, England Fax: +44-81-371-5182 ...ukc!dircon!uad1031
