I'm looking into the Mac .help file and wondered if anyone had written one and if they knew of any pieces of software that aided in this?

[*]Help Indexer
(/Developer/Applications/Utilities) Can't find it at https://developer.apple.com/downloads/ or Xcode.app/Contents

I'm happy writing the HTML files it's just the admin involved for the other files I thought could be better suited to automation or an app.

I've used Help Scribble (http://www.helpscribble.com) in the past for Windows applications just wondered if there was something similar on the mac to create a .help file for my app.

Thanks
