repods · 07-02-2010, 06:52 PM

I need to read some books in chm on dr800, how can I do ?
maybe fbreader supports chm ?
I didn't installed it yet..
is it better to try to convert them and how ?
I saw some pdf chm converted books and hey didn't like me at all..
could I port some linux chm reader program to dr800 ?
is it a good idea ?
and what program would be better in you opinion ? and why ?
let me know..

well I just tried fbreader for linux latest version
and it's not that good in reading chm..
any specific program like chmsee is way better ..
so suggestions ?

chmsee is based on gecko though I think there was a webkit port done at one point. I was going to try and port this but I do not see any free time for the foreseeable future. For now fbreader is good enough for me.
