Can I create a manifest (txt) file that extracts a string from a topic, that ends up in the HTM5 build zip?

I am decoupling online help from our product-- it is important that the help version number (my online help, not the RH version:)  be embedded in a manifest file that is extracted from a string within a topic. I am open to work-arounds too as long as the build number can also be picked up from the manifest text file by an external application.

Does anyone have any experience with this or ideas if it will work and if it could be integrated as part of the build compilation moving forward?

Thanks!

AFAIK there's no manifest file creation mechanism built into RH - the generation mechanism just creates a folder full of JavaScript, css and HTML files - there's nothing to extract something from an RH topic and stick it in a txt file unless you do it manually and include (or copy it) into your \!SSL!\ output folder.

Not really a RH question - more of a question to whatever you plan to use to package your help files up with.

I am not decoupling from RH--I expressed that poorly. The RH help build is being decoupled from the company product. If I were taking my html files and moving away from RH no I would not be asking this question in an RH forum. 

I am asking if anyone has done this and asking the RH HTML community if anyone has experience with this type of operation within ROBOHELP. Architects here are asking me if RH supports this type of manifest/possibly regex operation in the compilation of the RH HTML build.
