I agree that it's a distinction that has to be made.
integrating CHM help into your own LCL-based applications are not possible, and that nobody here actually seems to ship help files with their own applications. I guess I'm the only exception to that rule.
I think it was Reinier who yesterday said that if the socket interface used by lhelp was published (or at least if somebody could give us a pointer to the location of the information) it would be a big step forwards.
The following URL is exactly what I am talking about, but as I said, it only describes HTML help (lots of HTML files located in a folder), and has limited help abilities. http://wiki.freepascal.org/Add_Help_to_Your_Application
As I wrote yesterday, I've added a brief section to that page on generating arbitrary .chm files.
