TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Whew.... most people WANT a "thorn in my side" to "elude me!" It's the
thorns that stick around that do the damage!
That kind of fuzzy language aside... what kind of "relationship with
RoboHelp" are you yearning for? That of "owner" or simply "master"? If
it's the former, you don't have many options except to buy it. Maybe you
can pick up a used copy or one that is a few versions old to learn the
basics. If it's simply to "master," why not check out the e-Help web site
and download the demo version?
