Sometimes we "acquire" some e-books in CHM format and have some trouble opening them up in Linux boxes. This is not a problem in Windows (CHM is a MS format) as it comes with the tools to open it but us Linux (and BSD) users can't open it up by default. So, what do we use to view it? Well there are 2 options.
Happy reading :D
- Using GnoCHM
- A decent viewer (for GNOME) to open .chm files directly. You can install it using
- sudo apt-get install gnochm
- Using archmage
- It basically decompiles the .chm file and stores the contents in a folder of your designation
- To install it
- sudo apt-get install archmage
- To use it
- archmage file.chm output_name
Happy reading :D
