Easy to understand, excellent examples, essential information


After having worked on a JavaHelp (JH) project over a year ago when JH


was still very young (1.0 was just about to be released), and having to


wade through the JH User's Guide and JH Specification then for information,


I found this book very good for bringing myself back up-to-speed for


resuming the project after a year layoff. I wished I would've had it when I


initially began the project a year ago.


This book is very easy to read, contains excellent examples, and has the


the proper level of information to get help writers started on the right foot


with JH so they are productive quickly. It is written for the help writer but


includes just enough detail for helping developers that the help writer may


have to work with in order to implement a JH system. Overall, a very good


book that I am recommending to other writers assigned JH projects.
