If it's a character-based UI, it can't be very fancy, so why not stay simple? Consider putting together a series of HTML pages with lots of screen shots and guiding text. You get the same content, but quick and easy to produce, simple to host, and fitting with the rest of the product.

Take a look at http://www.gardencomposer.com/demo-planner.html for an example of what I'm talking about.

Client has an application with a character-based interface. Probably around 15 main screens, total of 40 screens including sub-screens.

Client would like to have a demo disk made that walks a user through the typical functions of the system as a training aid. Nothing overly fancy... not a lot of hours to allocate to this effort.
