[alt.msdos.programmer] Hypertext

gould@physics.usc.edu (Christopher Gould) (08/31/89)

	I am looking for a package to allow the use of hypertext-like
help facilities within programs I write.  An example of the facility
is Microsoft's QuickAdvisor, but this works only within the Quick
environment, not from a user program, even though users can add
entries to the help database.

	Packages which people on the net have mentioned, but without
personal experience, include:

	Hyperinterface:Menu from Avanpro

	Memory Mate from Broderbund

	HyperPad from Brightbill-Roberts

	Black Magic from Ntergaid (reviewed in Computer Language, May 1989).

Will anyone confess to personal experience with any of these products?
What works?
