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