NAME

       ScrollKeeper - An open document cataloging and metadata management system.

DESCRIPTION

       ScrollKeeper  is a system for managing document metadata.  Its primary function is to act as a card catalog for documents, keeping track of
       what documents are available, where they can be found, and various attributes of the documents such as  their  language,  format,  subject,
       version, and position in a contents list.  It also manages other metadata such as document indices.

       ScrollKeeper  acts as a middle layer between applications and help browsers.  When applications install documentation, the documentation is
       registered with ScrollKeeper.  Any ScrollKeeper-aware help browser on the system can then access this information.  In  this  way,  Scroll-
       Keeper is a compatibility layer which allows any help browser to interface to all the documentation on a system, provided the package which
       ships the documentation registers it with ScrollKeeper.	It also removes much of the burden from application  packagers	and  help  browser
       developers by providing a standard set of tools and by doing much of the work inside of ScrollKeeper.
