[»] Excellent program!
by Erik Norvelle - Aug 30th 2007 14:19:37

I've been using HelpSet Maker to generate the help documentation for my Java program TextCite, and it's been a marvelous tool. I especially like the fact that it generates multiple document types, in addition to a JavaHelp file. The GUI isn't the most beautiful in the world, but it's extremely functional and full of helpful features. Two thumbs up!
