Nowadays, when pressing F1 within most software applications a Help file will be displayed, no matter if it is a HLP CHM or TXT document.

The Help file features tips and instructions for using the respective applications with greater ease and efficiency. This includes step-by-step tutorials on how to use the program, a guide to how the interface is arranged or even links to online video tutorials.

There are numerous applications dedicated to creating Help files which aim at assisting software developers to make personalized documentation related to their apps.

Most of them are easy to use and require minimal effort on your behalf. manually created Help files are sometimes more efficient since they can be written in a language that is easier to understand by you or your peers.

Such utilities, such as the ones included on this list, include templates and translation features that will assist users in creating localized versions of the generated Help file.
