Well, I just played with using CHMs with FP IDE under OS/2 and realized that I get a nice immediate SIGSEGV when using the context help with the CHM help files, whereas everything works fine with both the standard HTML docs and also the INF files created by Graeme (rtl.inf + fcl.inf). :/ It could well be that that this is due to some bug in the OS/2 RTL triggered by different RTL functions used in the CHM support units (i.e. I don't want to blame the CHM support implementation nor its integration to the FP IDE necessarily), but that's what I get right now...
