Kchmviewer: A Qt-based viewer for chm files |
|
http://www.kchmviewer.net/
| Quote: | kchmviewer is a chm (MS HTML help file format) viewer written in C++. Unlike most existing CHM viewers for Unix, it uses Trolltech Qt widget library, and could optionally use KDE libraries for better KDE integration. It does not require KDE, but may be compiled with full KDE support, including KDE widgets and KIO/KHTML.
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, Korean, Chinese and Japanese help files, and with new search engine is able to search in any chm file no matter what language it is written. |
Magerlab was after a chmviewer, so I've posted this as an alternative viewer, to chmsee or xchm.
Needs Qt3 libraries to work. To run , enter kchmviewer in a console, or Menu->Document->Kchmviewer, or right-click a .chm file & set the Run-Action as kchmviewer.

ttuuxxx,
I should mention that this isn't the latest version, but the last one based on qt3.

Well thatse perfectly ok, It opens CHM files spot on, Kind of like adobe reader-v1 1.5MB
or the latest around 20MB they both open PDF files and the quality isn't any better, So when it comes to this and I didn't have to install anything else, it works quick, what more could you want for a viewer? Well edit and save options but I'm still very happy with it.

Dear snayak,
You first have to install the kchmviewer dependencies. There is a Trinity package for KDE3 somewhere here on the forum which should do the trick, since it also contains qt3.
With kind regards,
vovchik

Try installing qt-3.3.8.pet, then rebooting.
