NAME

       archmage - CHM(Compiled HTML) Decompressor.

SYNOPSIS

       archmage chmfile directory
       archmage -p port chmfile

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  documents  briefly the archmage command.  This manual page was written for the Debian
       distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

       arCHMage is an extensible reader and decompiler for files in the CHM format. This is the format  used  by
       Microsoft  HTML  Help,  and  is  also  known as Compiled HTML. arCHMage is based on python-chm binding to
       chmlib from GnoCHM project.

USAGE

       There is three ways to use arCHMage package now:

       1) Extract .chm to directory (directory will be created):

            archmage <chmfile> <directory>

       2) Run as http-server, which will publish chm file contents on specified port:

            archmage -p <port> <chmfile>

       3) Tune your apache to publish chm file contents if there is trailing slash in request to that file  (you
       will need working mod_python for that):

            Add that lines to your httpd.conf:

               AddHandler python-program .chm
               PythonHandler archmod.mod_chm

            Restart apache.

       Let's suppose, you have file sample.chm in DocumentRoot of your apache. After that tuning you can receive
       raw chm file, if you point your browser to

            http://yourserver/sample.chm

       or you can view chm file on the fly if you point your browser to

            http://yourserver/sample.chm/ (note trailing slash)
