Talk:List of help authoring tools

What about WebWorks ePublisher by Quadralay? Isn't that one of the biggest ones out there?

I must be new here, but to make Wikipedia somewhat consistent in policy, you will have to remove all direct links to outside companies. Recently a moderator deleted all the outside links to commercial learning management systems, List of learning management systems because of the purported policy to exclude such links. Only internal links to Wikipedia pages were left in the list.Cyberplasm (talk) 18:01, 28 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please allow some time to further research the topic and create sveral initial tables. Martin Moene (talk) 07:35, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Personally I think you're best just listing them without the tables, per WP:NOTGUIDE. TallNapoleon (talk) 04:37, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A guiding example for me was List of unit testing frameworks; other lists also use tables, for example List of oldest companies and List of compilers; I regard the extra (sortable) tabulated information as facts of interest, more so than as instruction or how-to material. Otherwise I would certainly agree on a clear list. Martin Moene (talk) 08:09, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Annotated list instead of tables

Triggered by the above suggestion by TallNapoleon and the answer to my help request, this List of uses an annotated list. A table layout is archived here for reference.

Windows only?

How comes this page contains only a few windows programs when a while ago it contained at least a couple for other systems? Also is this list only for GUI programs, or programs such as Texinfo (especially makeinfo --html) which are used frequently to generate documentation for non-Windows programs can be added? 79.166.146.127 (talk) 21:12, 19 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
