Although Help & Manual has a good price point for its functionality, remamber you do get what you pay for. After several years of using H&M, I would not advise anyone to purchase if unless they are going to use it as a single editor and not in a team environment. The development and support team refuse to keep the products souce control integration up to date, and have chosen to abandon the now obsolete Visual Source Save integration, refusing to give any indication of mitigating this major flaw and enable it for use with Team Foundation Server, other than its is on our list. They have, instead chosen to spend effort on the open source SVN system wich is clunky, very difficult to use and does not integrate well with their product.

Hi Scott,

Visual SourceSafe (not Source Save) integration has not and will not be abandoned. It is still fully included and still works exactly as before. When adding integration for the next generation of source control we had to choose which system to go with first because we were physically unable to develop for more than one at the same time. We chose SubVersion because that is what the majority of our customers were asking for, including those previously using VSS. Team Foundation Server support is going to be added, but we are not going to be rushed on it because we want to do it right.
