Microsoft Compiled HTML Help (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Microsoft Compiled HTML Help is a proprietary format for online help files, developed by Microsoft and first released in 1997 as a successor to the Microsoft WinHelp format. It was first introduced with the release of Windows 98, and is still supported and distributed through Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7 platforms. HTML Help files are made with Help authoring tools. Microsoft ships the Help Workshop with supported versions of Microsoft Windows and makes the tool available as a free download. There are also a number of third-party Help authoring tools available. The Microsoft Reader. LIT file format is basically a modification of the HTML Help CHM format. CHM files are sometimes used for e-books.
