Subject:On-line help tools for SGI From:Monica Stein <Monica -dot- Stein -at- SOFTIMAGE -dot- COM> Date:Wed, 23 Aug 1995 15:55:56 -0400
Hello,
I need to select an authoring tool to create on-line help and on-line
documentation for our Unix based (SGI) products. Our printed documentation set
(approx. 3000 pages) is produced using Frame 4 on the SGI (I just received the
Frame 5 upgrade). I have looked at HyperHelp, but was wondering whether there
were other tools that I was overlooking. I understand that Frame Viewer could
be a possibility, but it is a costly solution. I would appreciate hearing your
recommendations.
