Question for those working with help file authoring:
I am going to be on the job market this summer after having spent
several years teaching technical writing, business and professional
writing, and composition at the college level. My computer skills are
strong and I can certainly take a class or two to gain familiarity with
software I've not used before. Robohelp is mentioned in several of the
job postings I've seen, but I noticed some threads on this list that
suggest Robohelp has changed hands and isn't what it used to be.
What would you suggest I do - try to learn Robohelp or some other software?
