If you download the latest stable release then you'll find most of that stuff in the help files, so you won't have to figure it out all by yourself
There's also a wiki here that contains useful information
True. Then again, Linux users can always use arCHMage, gnochm, kchmviewer & many other CHM file readers (& that's ignoring the Firefox CHM Reader add-on, since most Linux distros come pre-packed with Firefox). Also, arCHMage can decompile CHMs to their base HTML (& HTML is readable by ALL operating systems; you can even use Arachne or Lynx under MS-DOS).
That said, you don't even have to rely on the file being compiled; it's nothing more than a bunch of HTML files that are embedded inside a special executable container. Decompile it & you get 100% pure HTML files (which all OSes can read... Even DOS).
