Hi All,

is this possible? I have some study material that is only in this
format. Is xCHM the only way? I couldn't get these ones installed on FC5,

as I got a load of dependencies,

$ sudo rpm -Uvh xchm-1.9-3.FC5.i386.rpm

Hi,
Have you tried yum search xchm?
Personally I use kchmviewer from extras.

kchmviewer.i386 2.5-1.fc5 extras
Matched from:
kchmviewer
CHM viewer
KchmViewer is a chm (MS HTML help file format) viewer, written in C++.
The main advantage of KchmViewer is extended support for non-English
languages. Unlike others, KchmViewer in most cases correctly detects chm
file encoding, correctly shows tables of context of Russian, Korean,
Chinese and Japanese help files, and correctly searches in non-English
help files (search for MBCS languages - ja/ko/ch is still in progress).

- Completely safe and harmless. Does not support JavaScript in any way,
optionally warns you before opening an external web page, or switching
to another help file.
- Shows an appropriate image for every TOC entry.
- Has complete chm index support, including multiple index entries,
cross-links and parent/child entries in index.
- Persistent bookmarks support. Allows to store bookmarks even if
"Favorites" window was not enabled for this chm file. Also stores the
screen position for every bookmark. You can also edit/delete bookmarks.
- For any opened chm file, stores the last opened window, search history,
bookmark history, font size and so on, so when you open this file again,
everything is always on the place.
- Has easy and powerful search-in-page support.
- Allows to increase or decrease the font size, so physically handicapped
people can read texts easily.
- Has standard Back/Forward/Home navigation.
- Can print the opened pages on a standard printer (usually via CUPS).
- Has complex search query support. You can use search queries like "lazy
people" + learn -not.
