TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
MANY thanks to those who responded to my question about help authoring
tools! Now, a follow-up:
Can anyone recommend a good resource (printed or online) that explains the
basics of WinHelp and HTML help, without focusing on a specific authoring
tool?
I can find lots of sites that supposedly introduce these helps, but they all
seem to be specific to a certain tool. I'm very new to this, and I'd like to
get a CLEAR understanding of the basics! I'd also like some suggestions for
appropriate style and formatting -- what works best and what doesn't.
Please copy me directly on responses, as I'm on digest. Again, thanks for
your help.
