Good project!

[Kuan Hsu]

Very good, thank you VANYA!
I Use:

Code: Select all

./CHMVIEW FB.chm -p KeyPgXXXX.html

to jump to XXXX keyword page.

Dear VANYA:
Can I package your app with poseidonFB.appimage? If yes, please paste your license I will pack it together, thanks~~^^

Nice project. Also displays fine with a dark theme, see below.

This does work for all keyword, e.g. 'put'.

@Vanya, is it possible to add a command line search option that would open this view in the case of 'put'?
So one can quickly switch to 'put #'

[VANYA]

Thanks everyone for the feedback!

Oh sure.

If yes, please paste your license

It is enough if I archive the file COPYING , containing a copy LGPL? Or do you need to specify a license somewhere in the program?

Ok, I'll try it.

Most projects seem to just use a COPYING or LICENSE file for the whole project. But I think the Free Software Foundation recommends marking each source file in some way. If I were you I'd put a brief comment at the top of each source file in your project noting that it's under the LGPL, and putting your copyright in it. Then the full license text in the COPYING or LICENSE file. That's generally what I do.

Nothing special I need, thanks

I've pack CHMVIEW in my new poseidonFB rev0.476, thanks~

I have updated the program.

1) Fixed some bugs
2) Added the file "COPYING" to the archive

For those building a program from source, download the latest window9 library.

[VANYA]

Update. Error fixed.

[VANYA]

Update:
1) bugs fixed
2) support links bookmarks (link.html#blabla)
3) support saving options for separate file chm (encoding , last page)

For those building a program from source, download the latest window9 library.

What about a Windows version? Sometimes Windows' own CHM Viewer just unable to open or render the CHM correctly. Having an alternative is good.

Hi Vanya:

Thank you for this.

When referring the Windows 9 library, please add a link to the post.

Using the forum search engine to find "Windows 9" results in

"The following words in your search query were ignored because they are too common words: windows 9."

Try searching with Window and 9 without space, as I remember the library's name is just Window9 (Window without s).

A sensible person would have made a note of the location the first time looking for it..
