Having spent some time reading the Plum documentation and comparing it with the onTap documentation, I think I'll stand by my original statement. But it's probably a close call. > And just like MM does with > livedocs, the PLUM documentation is available in HTML, online, which is > about as cross-platform as documentation gets. But the packaged documentation is CHM. Online documentation is fine until you happen to be working offline. Local documentation in HTML (or PDF perhaps) would remove that criticism. BTW, the Plum online documentation doesn't really give much of an idea how the framework is structured or how simple programs can be written with the framework. It needs an overview and a tutorial. I expected the Application Framework Overview section to tell me that but all it does is labor the point about how Application.cfm / OnRequestEnd.cfm work and the fact that Plum uses two include files in Application.cfm. The documentation succeeds in giving the impression of a complex framework with a somewhat ad hoc nature, a mix of components, custom tags, includes with no guiding principles or concepts. -- Sean A Corfield -- http://corfield.org/ Team Fusebox -- http://fusebox.org/ Got Gmail? -- I have 50, yes 50, invites to give away!
