All releases of HelpSetMaker


Release Notes: Line indentation (e.g. for source code output) can be archieved by putting "_" at line beginnings. Index creation works again as spurious XML statements are removed from HelpSet HTML. Macro definitions are always read with the correct character encoding. Projects are automatically saved before output creation. The "titletag" attribute can be added to HelpSet output now. HelpSets show a start page instead of an empty frame by default now.


Release Notes: Macros allow the definition of reusable text parts, inline or on a separate paragraph, with parameters and markup. New projects are set up much friendlier so that you can immediately start typing. Encoding for new projects has been changed to UTF-8; old projects retain their encoding for the moment. A bug in the scanner has been fixed regarding the handling of \escaped characters. Arrows in all four directions can be circumscribed in the STML input file.


Release Notes: The image handling is vastly improved: images in the editor preview windows and in all output modes can be scaled now. Additionally, thumbnails are managed much more efficiently. Changing thumbnail sizes is not time consuming anymore once the thumbnails are created.


Release Notes: Multiple character encoding and I18N issues have been fixed. LaTeX output is more flexible with support for arbitrary LaTeX code for header, document opening, and STML-div-parts. The program interface is translated into French.


Release Notes: The image library shows images with a directory tree now. LaTeX processing can be done from within HelpSetMaker. The output of HelpSet, HTML, and LaTeX has been syntactically cleaned up. HTML export can use the label definition as a filename. German LaTeX output allows hyphenation of words with dashes.


Release Notes: This release brings smaller feature enhancements in general project management. It has project-global integrity checks for image references and project-internal hyperlinks. Image library rebuilding and thumbnail size changing give more feedback during operation. Minor changes to the XML file format have been made to cope better with version management needs.


Release Notes: This version brings vastly enhanced support for collaborative work on a project by using a version management system. Additional features include beautified thumbnails and typographic quotation marks. Pagewise output can have navigational elements on the top or bottom of the page.


Release Notes: Image directories within the project are now stored relatively, allowing easier co-working on a project. Anchor tags are exported as more browser-friendly in HTML 4 output. The CSS file can be assigned to the content tree frame of HTML 4 output by project preference.


Release Notes: HelpSetMaker can now create a JAR file that contains the HelpSet directly. Output encoding is now handled consistently instead of assuming ISO-8859-1 as the default. The user interface has been translated to Norwegian.


Release Notes: Two minor features have been added: it is now possible to define external links in the document, and all menus now have keyboard shortcuts.
