hi,
I am new to using SourceForge CVS. I don't know how to check-in files into the CVS. It may take a while before the source codes and everything else are checked-in to SourceForge CVS.

If you need a build now, please send an email to me.

thanks.

hi,
help is wanted to make this the best open-source freeware help authoring tool available.

if you are interested to join the development team, please drop the project manager a note.

thanks!

Please see compilation notes for details how to compile this project.

Note: This is not your average open-source project, and hence, it is not expected that you can compile the project. it requires quite a number of third-party libraries, which are not open-source.

Welcome to HelpMaker project.

This is work-in-progress.
thanks.
