APLTreeHelp
APLTreeHelp is part of the CategoryAplTree project.
Overview
This application allows you to create a CHM-like help file (including an "Index" and a "Search" tab) by simply creating direct functions returning text according to a set of simple rules. This makes you completely independent from any 3rd-party tools for creating and maintaining help files.
It has the benefit of allowing you to edit your help pages while developing or tracing your application.
This is what APLTreeHelp's own help page looks like:
To give it a try just download APLTreeHelp, unzip it, load it into a Dyalog session and call this function:
#.APLTreeHelp.Selfie 1
If you want to investigate APLTreeHelp's own help pages look into #.APLTreeHelp.HelpHelp via the Workspace Explorer and it becomes clear:
Note how the namespaces reflect nodes and the functions reflect help topics.
This is what a typical help function looks like:
There will be soon an article in Vector regarding APLTreeHelp.
Requirements
APLTreeHelp needs at least version 14.0.
