"ouf"! I'm happy I asked... In fact my first thought was the good one... these files are mandatory to get a good looking help system.
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.
Thanks to clarify.
<joke>May be one day I'll be able to write the "pgAdmin internal book for dummies" for myself ;) May be this book could be a yellow one... mmh there is a concept here! </joke>
Stopping the noise now.
Cheers, Raphaël
