They are used under win32 to build the CHM (Compiled HtMl help) file, but they are 
also read directly by the wxWindows HtmlHelp viewer under *nix. They perform exactly 
the same function under *nix as they do under Windows.

Consider an analagy - under Windows, the help is precompiled like a C++ application, 
under *nix the help is interpreted at runtime like a TCL application.
