I work in RoboHELP 75% of the time I'm at work.

Incidently, RH is not the 'only' HAT you could use. There is freeware at
Josef Becker's site http://www.helpmaster.com/ that you could use.

Also, in some research I did in 8/99, I came up with the following list
of 26 HAT vendors:

Just curious....how many of you would say that RoboHELP is an
essential part of your job? How often do you use it, now, and in the
past?

I think I've been led to believe for a long time that RoboHELP
is a vital component of being a technical writer. I'm starting to
wonder though. Just seems that there are less costly and more efficient
methods out there...
