Application help as mind map

FreeMind comes with the documentation in the form of mind map, available from application menu Help > Documentation.

You can also browse the documentation now <mm>applet|in a Java applet browser</mm> (with around 700 KB that requires Java 1.4.2 or later) which gives you a proper FreeMind feeling. And you can <mm>flash|try a much smaller flash based FreeMind map viewer</mm>.
