-  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.
