Pelnor Software
Pelnor Software believes that documentation is a crucial part of software development. The Pelnor Help Add-in was created to make software documentation a natural part of development.
In other help creation software, screenshots are taken and added to documentation by hand. Adding hyperlinks to an image or linking program controls to help files is a slow manual process. Once this process is done even minor changes to the program being developed can take hours to re-document. It's little wonder that documentation is often the last thing done in the development process if it's done at all. Often documentation is looked at as just being too expensive.
The Pelnor Help Add-in was created to address these issues. The add-in allows you to document your user interfaces as you build them. New screenshots can be taken at any time with the push of a button. Image hyperlinks are created automatically. Controls in your program are automatically hooked up to their corresponding help topic by simply pointing the form Help Provider at the .CHM file. Pelnor's goal is to make documentation easier to produce, faster to create, and part of the development process the whole way through.
