Is there any chance we can change to the CHM format for the MUSHClient help file? I'm on windows 10 now, and am no longer able to open the hlp format. There are some workarounds that I think I could try to get to work, but I'm hoping that we can just update to a CHM file for general compatibility.

This has come up before, and while I do agree that HLP is effectively dead as a format these days, let me suggest at least these other options for you in the meantime...


The documentation is available and searchable online via https://mushclient.com/docs or https://gammon.com.au/docs
(both are the same)

There is also a sqlite-based plugin for accessing help from inside MUSHclient discussed here:

Personally, I find the online docs section to be much more user-friendly than the local help file version.
