  KchmViewer - a chm files viewer.


  Kchmviewer is a chm files (MS HTML help file format) viewer.
  The main advantage of KchmViewer is extended support for non-English
  languages. KchmViewer in most cases correctly detects chm file encoding,
  correctly shows tables of context of Russian, Korean, Chinese and
  Japanese help files. It searches in non-English help files (albeit, the
  search for MBCS languages - ja/ko/ch is still in progress.)



FEATURES:
=========

  - Has support for TDEIO slave, TDEHTML and K*Widget.
  - Safe and harmless, kchviewer does not support JavaScript,
    optionally warns you before opening an external web page or switching
    to another help file.
  - Detects and shows encoding of any valid chm file.
  - Shows non-English chm files, including cyrillic, chinese, japanese...
  - Search in non-English chm files using chm built-in search index.
  - Shows an appropriate image for every TOC entry.
  - Has chm index support, including multiple index entries, cross-links
    and parent/child entries in index.
  - Persistent bookmarks support. Kchviewer stores the screen position
    for every bookmark.
  - For any opened chm files, stores the last opened window, search history,
    bookmark history, font size, etc, so when you open this file again,
    everything is on the last place.
  - Has easy and powerful search-in-page support.
  - Allows to increase or decrease the font size, so partially sighted
    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.
