You can build the chm yourself if want. To do that you need an CVS client though to "download" the documentations: Installing the tools: Download & install Microsoft HTML Help Workshop (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=14188) $ pear channel-discover doc.php.net $ pear install doc.php.net/phd-beta Fetching the sources: $ cvs -d:pserver:cvsread@cvs.php.net/repository login The password is "phpfi" $ cvs -d:pserver:cvsread@cvs.php.net/repository co phpdoc Verify the docs are OK: $ cd phpdoc $ php configure.php Render the documentations and build the "CHM index files": $ phd -f chmsource -t chmsource -o manual -d .manual.xml Compile the CHM: $ cd manual $ hhc.exe chm/php_manual_en.hhp That will create "php_manual_en.chm" in the chm directory. > (Both layouts of the CHM file, both the current and my preffered one, are in > attachments) Everything except for plain/text gets stripped of the list. -Hannes
