Hi

I've been trying to insert links in a tiddler that open a specific
topic in a windows compiled help file (*.chm).
(Useful while writing notes as I learn new software)

I got it to work in Firefox (winXP) so I thought I'd share it.

1) Install the CHMReader (http://sourceforge.net/projects/chmreader/)
extension from the mozilla addons (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/
firefox/addon/3235).

2) In Firefox open the help file with ''File | Open CHM Files''. Open
the chm file index with ''View | Sidebar | CHM Reader'' if desired and
navigate to the desired topic.
Copy the the URL from the location bar and insert in a tiddler as
follows
[[test chm|chm:file://C:\myhelpfiledir\myhelpfile.chm!/mytopic.htm]]

Clicking on the link will open the topic in a new tab using the
CHMReader.

hope this is useful
