FAR is a combination of productive file, html and html help tools for authors, including HTML Help 1.x, and MS Help 2.x.
This software has some sparkling features. It can do the work of compressing the files brought in, by using the zip command. Any kinds of files can be located in the system and provision of replacing options for the undesired files is also present.
