You can use either kchmviewer or gnochm or xchm.
kchmviewer from KDE
kchmviewer is a CHM (Winhelp) files viewer written in Qt/ KDE. It can be build as a stand-alone Qt-based application or a KDE application. The main point is compatibility with non-English CHM files, including most international character sets. It has the features set of standard viewer: search (including non-English CHMs), bookmarking, font size changing, index/content browsing, codepage support, and more.
Install kchmviewer Using the following command
sudo aptitude install kchmviewer
gnochm from Gnome
GnoCHM is a CHM file viewer for GNOME. It is implemented in Python, using the PyCHM bindings for chmlib.
Install gnochm Using the following command
sudo aptitude install gnochm
xchm
xCHM is a cross-platform GUI front-end to chmlib, with borrowed bits from Pabs’ chmdeco project.
Originally written for UNIX systems (Linux, *BSD, Solaris), xCHM has been since ported to Mac OS X and Windows.
xCHM can show the content tree if one is available, print pages, change font face and size, remember bookmarks, display a searchable index, and search for words in the current page and the whole book.
Install gnochm Using the following command
sudo aptitude install xchm




I installed “gnochm from Gnome” and it works like a charm !!! Thanks for this post…
Greetingz for Turkey!!!
I’ve tried all three, and only xchm works in my Mint Linux / Compaq R3010 environment.
I’ve just installed gnochm ..and it works very well … Thank you Echza
I’ve installed all those three. only gnochm is work for my ubuntu linux. thanks for sharing
I just wondering, Is there any possible font setting in hidden directory for this application.Because the default font size is too small.
Thank u.
Thanks a lot it works well thanks again ……………………………
I tried gnochm on my Acer Aspire One, but the font was too small. I could enlarge it, but the scrollbar would not adjust to accommodate the larger content and I could not see it all.
xchm, however, works great right out of the box and I didn’t even have to mess with the fonts.
awesome
all three i tried..
it worked..
thank you for suggestion
Thanks for this, gnochm works great!
Thanks!
