Dr.Explain v3.1.205 Advanced Edition
Dr.Explain is an automated help authoring tool for creating CHM files, HTML help, on-line manuals, and printable
documentation. It will analyze the structure of your software interface and will generate help topic drafts for
it automatically. If you are a Web developer, then the HTML parsing capabilities will help you quickly document
all significant parts of your Web site as well. It doesn't matter what technology or tools you used to design
your software GUI. The Dr.Explain can make help documentation for any solution. The Dr.Explain tool is
exceptionally useful for authoring help files with many screenshots and technical illustrations. The built-in
capturing tool analyzes internal structure of captured windows or web forms and automatically creates numbered
annotations for all significant GUI elements: buttons, fields, options, menus, toolbars, and so on. You must
just add some descriptive text to complete the topic. With other help authoring tools those operations would
take hours while with the Dr.Explain you can accomplish it in minutes.
With the Dr.Explain you can easily generate a complete array of user documentation in various formats from a
single source file. The Dr.Explain can make CHM help files, HTML on-line manuals and printable manuals in RTF.
Electronically distribute your help file with application; put it on your product website; or deliver it as a
printed manual within the box. Many software vendors have already appreciated the simplicity of the Dr.Explain tool.
The produced help files and on-line manuals can be easily built in any solution and invoked from any programming
language. The common use cases include but are not limited to the following technologies: C, C++ (MFC & WTL),
Visual Basic, C#, VB.NET, ASP.NET, WinForms, WPF, Delphi & Object Pascal, Clarion, FoxPro, PHP, Perl, HTML,
JavaScript, and many more.
