Chmox: a viewer for MS Help CHM (aka Compiled HTML) files on Mac OS X 10.3 using Cocoa, WebKit and chmlib

chmox chm mac os x viewerCHM Help files are quite common and useful, not just for Windows users.
I know there’s PDF for some sort of universal file format, but sometimes the file source it’s not available or it’s either more browsable in CHM.

I still use a PHP reference guide in CHM since I know where to find things almost everywhere.

Here comes Chmox, from trusted sourceforge, built using Cocoa, WebKit and chmlib.
Version 0.3 dates back to February 2005, but works fine: reads and allows searching/browsing of all CHM files I’ve got.
