Hi guys! What format would you suggest for making interactive documentation? .txt is obviously universally readable, but gets muddled pretty quickly as it grows larger, so what about .chm or .hlp? Any troubles using them under non-Windows systems?

Gah, I was hoping you wouldn't say that... I'm never happy with multiple-file documentation! Ah well, I guess I'd have to make .html files for .chm anyway, so I might as well go with that. Thanks!

For the FBX docs I used absolutely positioned divs and hid them until someone clicked on one of the nav buttons. So it was single file html, yet multi-page.

I think .chm is windows only? html is fine.
