We've developed JavaHelp systems for quite a few clients with Java
applications. (You can't use browser-based help for "pure" Java
applications, after all.) Although it has its limitations, JavaHelp is a
stable, workable Help delivery format. I haven't seen any shareware
applications that use it, though.
