Hello all,
as official MS chm compiler does not support Unicode, I decided that it
would be easier to create my own simple app based on FPC chm package and
use it with LHelp to display multilanguage and multiplatform help.
As a result in last two days I have made simple GUI program to create
chm help files. Screenshot from Windows:
http://www.dict.lt/LHelpCreator/LHelpCreator_screen.png but it should
compile fine on all platforms.
Some points:
* It takes specified dir with all the files in it and compiles them to
the chm archive (context ids and names can be assigned).
* TOC can be designed in program.
* Index is created from TOC (as a result: not very useful yet).
* Saves and loads project from xml file.
* Uses FPC chm package to compile. As a result needs FPC revision 15395
(can be separately applied - 3 lines of code) in order not to leak memory.
Would it be useful to add it to Lazarus? Would Lazarus developers be
interested in it?
Windows binary with sample project:
