Well, that's nice for Concordia, but, what if I want to have the DocEx
client on some other OS ?

For instance, here at Nichimen (we are a Lisp house, based on Franz),
we produce the reference documentation for our Computer Graphics
products and our Development Kit. As you can understand, the record based
structure of COncordia makes it a terrific tool to organize tech-doc.
But, if it runs on Genera only, it has no interest for us. A while
back, I remember a standalone DocEx browser written for the Mac.

Otherwise, as I said, if you have any idea of a similar product ...
