A manual for Halibut is here: https://sites.google.com/site/vdeeditor/Home/vde-files/halibut-manual And a distribution archive is also here: https://sites.google.com/site/vdeeditor/Home/vde-files/files-section/hbt8112b.zip Halibut is a processor for a form of ASCII text markup similar to Markdown, that can output to Plain ASCII text, HTML, Unix man page format, GNU Info format, PDF, PostScript, and Old-style Windows Help (.HLP). (Fiddle with the options and it produces HTML you can feed to the Windows Help compiler to get CHM files.) ______ Dennis https://plus.google.com/u/0/105128793974319004519 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Slashdot TV.
