to main chapter Hypermake
Hypermake has some powerful functions:
-
Automatic linking and indexing
Marking a word or a phrase of several words with a special character will generate
-
a link from all other occurrences of the word or phrase in the document to the marked
position
-
an entry in the index.
External links from Help files to the WWW are supported. If you enter an expression
beginning with http: or ftp:, it becomes a link automatically.
-
Automatic dividing in several HTML files
When creating HTML files, Hypermake creates several target
files in a new folder from one source file. This improves the performance while
viewing with browsers. Neither the author of the text nor the reader of the files
notices the separation into several files.
-
Automatic creation of contents
You will get a contents page with links to all chapters. In HTML you can choose between
an unordered list view and a Javascript contents tree view where you can open and
close subchapters.
-
Automatic generation of helptables and constants (IPF/Winhelp)
For OS/2 and Windows help files, in the Hypermake source
file you can directly enter ID constants like "ID_buttonOK" to associate chapters
of your HLP file with buttons of your program. Hypermake generates a helptable
file you can include in your RC, C or PAS file.
-
Automatic Writing of links to subchapters
At the end of a window of a higher heading level, links to all subchapters and to
the next chapter of the same level will be created.
-
Automatic arrangement of several heading level windows
With only one command, two or three heading levels are placed simultaneously on the
screen (Frames). See window arrangement sample output.
-
Converting tables
You enter tables with a fixed font with spaces like you would do if there won't be
a table functionality.
-
Simple creation of footnotes
You can write footnote text between special characters, e.g. brackets, and it will
be shown in a seperate frame. See footnote sample .
