File Help Generator

[Carl Shepherdson]

I'm looking for a file help generator (free or paid) it will be web based.

I was going to go with:
http://www.ibe-software.com/products/software/helpndoc/

But it doesn't support HTML (I need to put Flash movies into it).

Any recommendations for anything?

Couldn't you use a wiki with a fancy menu?

Or does it create it automatically?

[Carl Shepherdson]

Hmmm I never thought about a Wiki...

Basically I'm looking for something to sort out all our flash tutorials and some new ones. I don't like the way they currently are in the KB.

It is what I used here:
http://www.cruxcms.co.uk/wiki/index.php

Basic, but it seems to work ok

That is a very basic wiki program, something like the one used on wikipedia would probably be better

[Carl Shepherdson]

Hmmm no that wouldn't work.

It wouldn't be too hard to just manually add the tutorials in after compiling it, you could even do it in notepad. I downloaded helpndoc and it produced extremely proffessional menus etc.

Shame there is no HTML option, although you can import HTML it doesn't get the flash in there!!

Good luck.
