[RndTbl] Help and Documentation System Development

[Michael Doob]

I've used sphinx for several years to document (collections of)
items for myself. I find it useful although limited in its presentation.
To get a feel how it works, look at my page of asymptote examples:

http://linearalgebra.math.umanitoba.ca/asyinfo/

Note the option "Show Source" below the table of contents to
get a feel of the markup language the sphynx uses.

Cheers,
Michael

I am looking at alternatives to the Adobe Robohelp help/documentation system development software.

Are there any recommendations over the many open source packages that exist?

I have looked briefly at Sphinx.  Has anyone got any experience with this package?


Many thanks in advance for your suggestions and comments.


Regards

Brock
