Hi, I have been trying to configure Wine to associate kchmviewer with chm files in hopes of having kchmviewer launch whenever I push a help button within SkyTools 3 (http://www.skyhound.com). I am running Wine 1.3.18 under Ubuntu 10.10 on an amd64 machine. I followed the instructions in the Wine FAQ at http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#head-91bf3f0a8ccbfab8dee96f82fae2f1a489e0d243 and have tried

I would like to be able to start the Wine .chm file-viewer, C:\windows\hh.exe, from the command-line like this: wine hh.exe /some/dir/somefile.chm It works if the current directory contains the .chm file, but not if I have to specify a path. Am I missing something?

Please excuse my first couple of probably quite a few newb questions. Are there still probs with viewing chm files? If I browse to the chm file and just launch it seems fine until I try search for a subject. I search, find what I'm looking for, click it and the help file closes. If I use wine hh / winepath windows path it launches but if I click search I can't try the search, it's

Dear All! I'd like to view CHM files using hh.exe (standard windows tool). I installed Internet Explorer 6 (http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Install_Internet_Explorer_6_SP1) In general it seems that hh.exe is working: It displays navigation tree. But html pages from CHM file is not displayed (see screenshot). Nearly a year ago I have made hh.exe working. This is why I believe that it is possible

Hi I have installed a windows program that uses chm help files.

I have found a linux program (I uses fedora) called displaychm. My question is: Is it posible to configure wine to launch the linux program I

Future Pinball (a free pinball simulation) have some chm help files. I can't see it with 'wine hh.exe file.chm' command (chm are okay with a native viewer, like gnochm) Is there a way to make it works ?

This is related to my post about .chm where vitamin set me on the right path. http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=1026 Since then I reinstalled Ubuntu 8.04 and wine. While perusing the virgin registry I noticed the chm.file ...command key was: C:\windows\system32\hh.exe %1 There is no hh.exe located in that directory. The hh.exe file is located in the C:\windows\ directory. If wine uses the

Hi, I am a newbe with Wine and I need some advice.. I have 2 partitions on my computer: Linux + winnt40. I use wine for developping drivers for W2K (yes it is NOT a joke!) under Linux (some kinda of cross-compiling if you want ..). So for compiling and linking it works flawlessly (really!) and it's GREAT! The only problem is that I cannot browse the DDK documentation. For doing that

I'm a Windows (non C++) software developer and I'm wanting my software to run under Wine as best as possible. My app uses CHM help files which are displayed in Windows when pressing F1 or clicking Help on the menu, but it does not work under Wine on Linux. It does absolutely nothing. Is see there are CHM viewers available but Wine does not seem to use them. Any suggestions? Thanks,

Hi, All! I've tried to invoke a command (using Wine-0.9.5) "wine hh document.chm" and received a message that a Mozilla Active X control is needed, and then this control was downloaded from source.wineHQ.org (Mozilla ActiveX Control v1.7.12) and installed. I've installed Mozilla-1.7, too. And nevertheless, the command "wine hh document.chm" produces a message about a

Hello, I've spent a while reading about configuring WINE for use with hhc.exe to create .chm files. These instructions almost work: http://code.google.com/p/htmlhelp/wiki/HHW4Wine But, when comparing the Windows-generated .chm to the Linux-generated .chm, the Linux-generated one does not have sorted or consolidated index entries. It seems that whatever part of the process is responsible for

Hi, Chm (compiled help) is a microsoft invention. It's the default help system under windows, but not so under linux. I found that (at times) I like better how chm help looks. Since there are chm viewers under linux, using chm help files should be possible. Has anybody tried to set R so it opens chm by default? I'm sure there's some flag or Rprofile var that could get this done.

Hi, I have been developing a small package. It install under RedHat Linux 9.0 without a problem. However, I have a small problem under Windows XP.
