arCHMage is an extensible reader and decompiler for files in the CHM
format.  This is the format used by Microsoft HTML Help, and is also
known as Compiled HTML.  arCHMage is based on python-chm binding to 
chmlib from GnoCHM project.

There is three ways to use arCHMage package now:

1) Extract .chm to directory(directory will be created):

   archmage <chmfile> <directory>

2) Run as http-server, which will publish chm file contents on
   specified port.

   archmage -p <port> <chmfile>

3) Tune your apache to publish chm file contents if there is trailing
   slash in request to that file (you will need working mod_python
   for that):

   Add that lines to your httpd.conf:

      AddHandler python-program .chm
      PythonHandler archmod.mod_chm

   Restart apache.

   Let's suppose, you have file sample.chm in DocumentRoot of your
   apache.  After that tuning you can receive raw chm file, if you
   point your browser to

   http://yourserver/sample.chm

   or you can view chm file on the fly if you point your browser to

   http://yourserver/sample.chm/ (note trailing slash)
