xCHM
xCHM is a cross-platform GUI frontend for CHMLIB, written with wxGTK. It is able to display the topics tree, work with displayed pages history, print the current page, work with bookmarks, change fonts and fast search through all the pages of the loaded .chm document. Being indirectly dependent on GTK+, the possibility of changing GTK+ skins makes xCHM theme-friendly.

That's a wxGTK problem.
Please don't start questions threads here, THIS IS NOT A SUPPORT FORUM.
There is a forum at the project's SourceForge.net page. You can use that for asking for help, but STOP ASKING HERE. I've said this before but apparently nobody bothers to read the stuff - even if it could have answered their questions. Oh the joy.

Thanks a lot!
I got it.
Now, I have another Q:
After I installed, and run xchm,I got following lines:
(process:23251): Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library
(xchm:23251): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.
ais200-RAYSLX:/home/wym/download/xchm-1.10# xchm
(process:23285): Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library
(xchm:23285): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.
And also a messgae windows said: Can not set locale to:.
I don't understand what is wrong I made, even I run as root, also same.
Thanks

Why? if I can not use wx-2.8>and must use wx-2.6?
Thanks
how to solve this problem ? (about simplified chinese)
My system is centos 4.4, and using x86 platform.
I download chmlib 0.38 & wxGTK 2.6.3, and compiled the wxGTK with this options: --with-gtk --enable-unicode.
Now, when I open an simplified chinese CHM file, it notice that "不能从字符集'Windows繁体中文(CP950)'转换". which means that "could not convert from fonts 'windows traditional chinese'".
And, I press "OK", it could open the file. The main window display correctlly, but the index window show me correpted fonts.
How can I ask xchm check the chm file with simplified chinese first ?
