I have uploaded a Tcl/Tk program named DIYHelp to CRAN that allows users to build and use their own keyword/description style help files. It is designed to operate well with the R system of help files, but will also use other layouts. It should operate in text, HTML and PDF formats (and maybe others). It is pretty basic at the moment, and will only work on UNIX boxes without a bit of user hacking. I would appreciate comments, suggestions, bug reports, etc. If it is worthwhile, I hope to improve it considerably.

As there are some problems running the program on our local machines (and hence cannot evaluate it) we have deferred putting the package onto CRAN.
