Thorsten Otto has updated his own version of the ST-Guide alternative HypView and the hypertext compiler. HypView is compatible with the HYP files of ST-Guide, a popular format (not only) for the help function of various programs. Otto's version is based on the HypView of the FreeMint project, but offers some interesting additions. For example, both programs are also available for other platforms like Windows 32/64 bit and Linux - so these operating systems again have an up-to-date HYP viewer and compiler.
On the Atari side HypView should now also work under Single-TOS - a short test with TOS 1.62 failed, however, while starting under EmuTOS it worked but the icons were not displayed correctly. With a program size of 678 KB HypView is more suitable for multitasking systems anyway, which usually have more RAM available (ST-Guide: 44 KB). The package includes useful tools like Refcheck. For macOS there are currently only command line apps available, the viewer is still in development.
