view .chm files in linux?

Is there any type of viewer that can display windows HTML help files (*.chm)in linux? I tried getting the windows viewer to run with wine but that ain't happenin'...

TIA,

Hi,

Did you try the search option of this forum? It will give you multiple threads dealing with chm files.

Here's just one solution: xchm (sourceforge)

Hope this helps.

Gnochm and kchmviewer are also available.

:-)
Thanks for the quick replies! You got back before I could get in here and apologize for posting such a common question...

I found this:

about a minute after I posted and I am working on getting kchmviewer working right now...

If you can help me with that I would be grateful. It is telling me

Code:

An error occurred while loading *insert snippet from embedded html stuff*



Could not start process Unable to create io-slave:

 klauncher said: Unknown protocol 'ms-its'.

...any hints? I am working on it right now, but I will post back with the solution if I get it fixed.

Thanks again!
