Helium 3.1 is a shareware program that improves Balloon Help on the
Macintosh.
With Helium installed, users can press a key combination to instantly see
the balloon help for whatever's under the cursor on the screen, without
having to turn help on and off again. Users can also choose their own
font and size for balloon help text, making it more readable. Finally,
Helium lets users hide the Help menu (and show it for a moment if
necessary).
This version includes a fix for a conflict with Kaleidoscope, plus new
features. The program is fully compatible with Mac OS 8 (and correctly
hides the Mac OS 8 "Help" menu if you wish).
If you've been frustrated by Balloon Help, you'll find that Helium makes
it usable!
$12 shareware from Tiger Technologies, creators of the Mac shareware
programs Window Monkey, Menuette, Speed Beep and Holiday Lights.
