Help documents that compile with app

[Smokey Grindel]

In MCF apps we get a help section of our application solution which holds
HTML documents and the Help Workshop HPP files that compile every time you
build your app... is there anyway to do this in C#? I tried messing with the
HHC.EXE HTML HelpWorkshop compiler and post build events but didnt get where
I wanted to do... basically I want to have a folder in my project that holds
all the help workshop html files, and index files then use HHC.exe (the help
compiler) to compile it at build then copy the resulting CHM (help document)
file to the applications build output folder... anyone every try this or
know of any sources of information for it? thanks!

Since HHC is a command line exe you should be able to automate its
execution using a build tool like MsBuild or NANT
