Open Office format it's too complicated for a help file.
I can't see why? If you are referring to the tags while authoring
help, when last have you seen all the tags for Windows Help. Also the
Help Authoring Plugin of OOo makes authoring help much easier. Plus
you get the benefit of what OOo Writer has to offer.
Regarding generating the HTML from the XML. That would be a once off
design of XSLT rules. Not difficult, just time consuming. I am sure
we can peak at the OOo XSLT to help us along.
The only thing to I can think of that might be a pain, is finding a
decent HTML Viewer component for Lazarus and something that supports
basic CSS would be a big bonus. This isn't really a issue against the
OOo format as the consensus is that HTML as one of the final output
formats is the preferred choice. In that case, no matter what help
format we use, we still need to be able to viewer the HTML in some
viewer component.

Graeme.
