Hi everyone,

I am trying to decide whether to go with the usual CHM files for documenting my programs, or instead use the Topic++ system. I'd rather go for the second since I find it more convenient, however there is at the moment a lack of documentation in this respect.

I would like to do something similar to what the TheIDE help does: a menu with tree-like TOC, previous-next buttons, search, and so on -- I think we are all quite familiar with it. I know I could try and follow the Topic++ and TheIDE code itself; however, the code is also not annotated, so that too would be difficult.

Has anyone managed to do something similar? Can you give me some tips to guide me in the right direction?

The other alternative, using CHM files, is certainly easier for me. So far I am simply doing

system("filename.chm");

but this solution pops up an ugly cmd aside from the help. Is there a better command that hasn't got this side effect?

Thanks,

Kel
