PureHELP Compiler is a tool to compile HTML files into CHM help files.

    - or launch PureHELPCompiler.exe directly.
It can :
    - compile a HHP project ;
    - compile a directory (recursive) ;
    - compile a single HTML file.
The tool can automatically create a content file (.HHC) and/or an index file (INDEX.HTML).

I don't think the microsoft help compiler and/or the microsoft CHM help system supports flash.

It already accepts a filename as argument, you can launch it from the command line if you want : PureHELPCompiler.exe MyProject.htm.
But you are talking about a console application, don't you ?

Yes, i think it would be a nice feature, to use PureHelp also from the Commandline. All my projects build from Commandline (generating files, compiling, creating installer....). So i need a tool to generate from the Batch a Help-File. I think it is not so hard to add this feature to PureHelp.
important Options: complete directory, rekursiv.

And, btw, a nice feature would be a index-generator. So have a 'blacklist' of all unimportant words, and all other come to the index...... ;-)

This would be great. But if you have not enough time, i can add it - if you send me the source.
