Bug#416954: O: chmlib -- library for dealing with Microsoft CHM format files
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
I orphan chmlib package, there is no new version available for the moment.
The package description is:
It is a very simple library, but sufficient for dealing with all of the
chm files. Library currently does not has write support.
.
CHM files are used on the Micosoft Windows platform to store program
documentation, almost always in the form of HTML, with some non-standard
quirks. CHM files are a form of archive known as InfoTech Storage Format
(ITSF) files and contain some special files to implement features of the
CHM viewer. On Windows they are accessed through a kind of virtual
filesystem exposed by a dynamically loaded library. ITSF files have
UTF-8 filenames and use an LZX cruncher to compress all the files in one
big chunk. Both the ITSF and the formats of the internal CHM files are
highly indexed and their designs are all clearly optimized for read-only
access.
.
This package includes test programs
