Kchmviewer is a free, open-source CHM (aka MS HTML help) and EPUB viewer
|
|
written in C++ for Unix, Mac and Windows systems. Unlike most existing
|
|
CHM viewers for Unix, it uses Trolltech Qt widget library, and could
|
|
optionally be compiled for better KDE integration. It does not require
|
|
KDE, but may be compiled with KDE widget support. Since version 5.0 it
|
|
uses the Webkit API to show the content. This script builds Qt-only
|
|
version.
|
|
|
|
The main advantage of kchmviewer is the best support for non-English
|
|
languages. Unlike other viewers, kchmviewer in most cases is able to
|
|
correctly detect the chm file encoding and show it. It correctly shows
|
|
the index and table of context in Russian, Spanish, Romanian, Korean,
|
|
Chinese and Arabic help files, and with new search engine is able to
|
|
search in any chm file no matter what language it is written.
|
|
|
|
kchmviewer is written by George Yunaev, and is licensed under GNU
|
|
General Public License version 3. It uses chmlib to handle the CHM
|
|
files, and some ideas from xchm.
