I'm evaluating using Qt Assistant for our online help, but I haven't found any tools for creating the .dcf file that fills in the contents and index tabs. Am I missing something?

Any text or XML editor will do. .dcf/.adp files are very simple.
Simple, yes, but they can also be very long. What's needed is a tool that goes into the source files of the authoring tool (preferably FrameMaker), gets the contents and index information, and generates the .dcf file automatically. We've got about three dozen help systems with thousands of pages that are being changed daily. Creating the .dcf files manually everytime we do a build is out of the question.
If FrameMaker can export this information as XML you could write a simple XSLT transformation.
