RE: Program documentation tools

[Vernon Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Rick

Agreed - and to get some of the goodies you have to buy extra modules 
from them - the stuff that generates Java and the like. But for 
straight documentation and cross-reference, I think it is very good. 
The alternatives mostly are Abstract - also very good - and Hawkeye, 
although the latter is a hard sell for me now - their web site is 
unusable, I can't tell they are moving into this day and age. But I 
have not seen it lately, so can't say for sure.
