SOS Help! Info-Author (SHIA)

Probably the easiest help authoring tool around.

Go click on the "Read Me First - Latest Information" help file below now to find out about SOS Help! Info-Author (SHIA).

SOS Help! Info-Author (SHIA) is one of the most powerful yet one of the easy to use help authoring tools around. Because it's a WYSIWYG tool you don't have to learn any complicated RTF syntax commands to create your own help files - just build the help file the way you want it to look. SHIA does all the hard work for you so you can leap right in and be producing help files immediately. Of course if you need to get "behind the scenes" for advanced customisation, you can do that too, but it allows you to create complex Help files in hours rather than days and adds jumps and pop-ups from text or bitmaps with just a few mouse clicks.

SHIA can create both WinHelp 3.1 (for Windows 3.x) and WinHelp 4 (for Windows 95 and NT) help files and ships with both compilers. It creates all the files needed by the help compilers without the need for a Rich Text Format editor (so you don't need MS Word). When you buy SHIA it's a "one stop shop" we give you all the tools you need to produce professional looking help files in the box.

This latest version of SHIA allows two-way conversion between Windows Help and HTML allowing you to create Web pages from your help file and/or help files from your Web pages. You can even use SHIA as a WYSIWYG HTML editor to design your own Web pages.
