Help+Manual is a documentation tool and content management system for both single and multi-author editing.

All publishing formats supported by Help+Manual are generated from the same project. This means you only have to edit your help and documentation once. Forget about the nightmare of “converting” your documentation every time you change anything.

Help+Manual publishes all standard Windows help formats, from HTML Help to Webhelp to Visual Studio Help. It also generates Adobe PDF, Microsoft Word documents and ePUB e-books – the standard format supported by the Apple iPad – as well as Amazon Kindle.

ProDelphi is a tool to measure the runtime of programs written in Delphi Object Pascal.

The principle of source instrumenting, the sophisticated measurement correction algorithm and the granularity of 1 CPU-cycle guarantee an outstanding measurement accuracy. Even very small or multiple nested functions are measured precisely. After profiling with ProDelphi you know where the bottle neck is, not where it might be.

Source instrumenting also ensures that idle times caused by certain Delphi- or Windows- API-functions (e.g. Sleep, MessageBox, WaitForSingleObject etc.) are automatically excluded from measurement.

The extremly low measurement overhead guarantees even to measure time critical applications.

Package consists of both:

Oxygene

Oxygene lets you create applications and projects for all of today’s major platforms – with one IDE and one great programming language.

Oxygene is built on the foundation of Object Pascal, revamped and extended to be a modern language for the twenty-first century. If you are a Delphi developer, you will be right at home with the Oxygene language. Oxygene lets you target all platforms truly natively.

and

Hydra

Hydra is an application framework that allows developers to create modular applications that can mix managed (.NET) and unmanaged (“native” Delphi) code in the same project, creating a seamless user experience while combining the best technologies available from either platform.

The native Delphi components in this suite provide fast and direct data export into MS Excel, XML, HTML, SPSS, PDF and other formats from a DBGrid, Dataset or any VCL control!

SMExport suite 4.99 is a set of component that export data from TDataSet or TDBGrid or any other VCL control (such as TStringGrid, TListView and so on) into such formats as Paradox (if using the BDE) and DBase tables or into a text file (fixed or comma-delimited), HTML, XML, MS Excel, MS Word, PDF, MS Access, SQL-script, Lotus 1-2-3, Quattro, SYLK, DIF, LDAP DIF and other formats.

The native Delphi components provide fast and direct importing of data from MS Excel/XML/HTML/DBF/Open Office/Paradox files directly without use of any external libraries!

SMImport suite 2.92 is a set of components that can import data into TDataSet (any descendant) from a variety of different file formats.
Most components support both loading from file and streams so you may load from memory/blob/cgi streams and/or in multi-tier environments.

The SMImport suite also contains a user-friendly wizard, the TSMIWizardDlg component, which is a self-contained wizard which guides end users in the importing of any data at run-time via a user-friendly interface to assist with load parameter settings.

SMMsg suite allow you to read/parse the files created by MS Outlook and any other mailer program.

You may read the message with all mail information (subject, body, recipients, attachments etc), contact, note, task, appointment, journal, post item.

Beyond Compare allows you to quickly and easily compare your files and folders. By using simple, powerful commands you can focus on the differences you’re interested in and ignore those you’re not. You can then merge the changes, synchronize your files, and generate reports for your records.

Directly access FTP sites, media devices, WebDAV resources, svn repositories and cloud storage. All from your Windows, Mac OS X or Linux workstation.

Beyond Compare includes built-in comparison viewers for a variety of data types. In addition to text, compare tables, images, binary files, registry hives, and much more.
