And Borland's help systems too. Sadly today with (internet) online documentation things are still not as good - even if often there is more information, it is scattered all over the place, often repeating (parts of) itself and slow to find and access. The main reason why i prefer to have a WIN32.HLP file from (i think) some Borland product whenever i need some Win32 function than search Google for it for MS Docs (the test is 99.9% of the cases the same anyway). Also why i have Zeal[0] installed with the docs of a few things i use and i download offline copies of whatever specs and documentation i can find for other things. But in terms of help systems, i think CHM was the peak (in terms of functionality - the HTML-based content is a bit of unnecessary overhead and something like HLP's hypertext should have been good enough, but Microsoft wanted to shove IE4 everywhere so they can claim it was an integral part of Windows 98 back then).
