A while back, a few listers asked about introductions to Windows Help
files. For anyone just getting started in writing Windows Help files,
PC Magazine has been a useful resource. They won't take the place of a
good book or course on the subject, but here are a few recent articles
that will provide enough information to get you started:
The structure of a help system. Neil Rubenking, PC Mag., Dec. 20/94,
pages 249-254.
Electronic publishing with Windows help. Ray Duncan, PC Mag,
Jan.10/95, pages 246-249.
***PC Mag., Feb. 21/95. The author would have been Barry Simon or Ray
Duncan. [Power Programming column?] Sorry, but someone lifted this
issue from the library and I couldn't confirm the details.]
Help on help: resources for WinHelp authors. Barry Simon, PC Mag.,
Apr. 11/95, pages 249-254.
