Can't I do it in Boa constructor ??? I have seen an option in Boa to
create a new helpbook and compile it to CHm and help files, But no
clue how to do it.......
Not that I know of. Which version are you using? Where in the
application did you find it? Indicate the menu's you navigated to get
to that option.
MS HTML Help Workshop is the standard compiler for CHM files. There
are some other freeware/shareware. The workshop is simple enough
though.
If u have Boa constructor 0.4.4, Go to File--->New--->helpbook
Save it. After saving, click File menu option and you will find, "make
HTB" and "make CHM"
But I dont know how to add files and generate a complete CHM file.
Right-click the file list view and select "Add files". I didn't see
this Helpbook feature before. However, I could not get it to compile
after that. Unless, Boa Constructor is doing something while building
CHMs that integrates with the app development, I recommend that you
try a specialized tool for the job instead. Boa was an extremely
promising tool when I saw it about 6 yrs ago or so at 0.0.1 (it
already had a streamlined WYSIWYG GUI builder with a code aware editor
back then, something we still don't have elsewhere for Python). But
the development never seemed to gather steam since then. 0.4.4 is not
even listed as a release on the home page and it is almost 2 yrs old.
