HelpScribble

HelpScribbles is a software program which can be used in order to create help contents for your Windows apps, regardless of the development tool you have used.

The installation processes is typical and brings you to a plain interface. It encompasses a menu bar, several shortcut buttons and a panel to display your project. All user categories can take advantage of it, regardless of their level of experience.

This utility enables you to export the help contents you have created to the hard drive, in formats such as HSC, TXT, HTML, RTF, HLP and CHM. Importing is possible from HPJ and RTF files, yet it warns you that a decompiler might help you achieve better results.

You can merge two projects, view options, use a spell checker, undo or redo actions, cut, copy and paste elements, as well as modify topic properties, such as ID, context string, title, keywords, status and add a macro.

HelpScribbles lets you change the font type, style, size and color, align text, use a find and replace function, and insert bullet points, images (PNG, GIF, JPG), Flash files (SWF), buttons linked to a topic, target or WinHelp macros, as well as RTF codes and HTML tags.

The program also integrates browse sequence, contents file, index, SHG and WinHelp macros editors, which can aid in creating thorough user guides, and enables you to print all your data.

Minimal CPU and memory are required, which means you can easily open other tools in the same time, without it affecting the way your computer runs.

Taking all of this into consideration, we can safely say HelpScribbles is a useful piece of software for creating Windows Help files. It presents a user-friendly and feature-rich environment, good response time and comprehensive Help contents.
