xchm 1.14 package
Mattneri
XChm is a great tool to read Microsoft Compressed HTML Help (chm) under Linux and Unix.
Actually there are many chm readers for linux/unix platforms but in my humble opinion xchm is the one with better features.
Ubuntu users can install xchm through apt-get because the 1.09 release is contained in the feisty official repositories.
apt-get install xchm
Anyway if you want to install the latest release (1.14) I created a deb package. You can download it here.
