- Xantippe - The Information Structuring Workbench
- ------------------------------------------------
-
- XANTIPPE.EXE - The executable.
- XANTIPPE.XAN - An example data file. The data file was used
- to create the help system for Xantippe.
- XANTIPPE.HLP - The Xantippe help file.
-
-
- What's New
- ----------
-
- 1) Xantippe can now create the HPJ and cross-reference header file for
- Windows Help. Using the Build command you can create these files
- and run the help compiler from within Xantippe.
-
- 2) Xantippe can create data files for the QuickHelp compiler, helpmake.
- You can either create the file with a Save As and run the compiler
- yourself or use the Build command to create the QuickHelp data file
- and run the compiler.
-
- 3) Xantippe can read RTF files. Using the Open command you have the option
- of opening a Xantippe data file or RTF data file. Each page in the RTF
- file is placed in its own text card. You must have hard page breaks or
- the whole document will appear in one text card.
-
- 4) Under the Project menu there is a new Preferences option. From this
- option you can set whether card ids are to be displayed and edited as
- hex or decimal values. You can also set a flag to decide if you should
- be prompted to rename a card when you create it.
-
- 5) You can now use the cards in the browser when linking. When you create
- a link you can now click on the name of the card in the browser as well
- as the cards window. Remember cards that are underlined in the browser
- are just placeholders and are not "real" cards, therefore you cannot
- click on these card names to create a link.
-
-
- I'd appreciate any feedback or bug reports. I am currently trying to
- improve the online documentation so any comments on the documentation
- would be greatly appreciated.
-
- If you find this program useful, please register it! Refer to program
- for online documentation and inforamtion on how to register.
-
- I have had reports of a conflict with Stacker. If you have Stacker
- and are having problems running Xantippe, try removing Stacker.
-
- Thanks...
