RubyFrontier, a tool for HTML Help

RubyFrontier is a system for generating and maintaining web sites, created by technical writer Matt Neuburg specifically for the task of writing HTML-based onscreen help. Neuberg demonstrates the tool with a screencast in which he implements a help book for Apple Help, too. The tool is free and, being written in Ruby, cross-platform. See the RubyFrontier website for more information.
