I am interested in your "shoot-out", because I need to find a suitable
help authoring tool.
It's rather for creating online help. Print output does not have a high
priority, but would be nice to have.
I've had a look at Help&Manual and am currently evalutating Flare.
Initially I liked Flare, but I am discovering more and more issues...
Perhaps your "shoot-out" could help me make a decision.
Regards, Frank
