Hi,

I added components to lhelpcontrolpkg to show chm file(s) via lhelp in LCL applications.
See the example in lazarus/components/chmhelp/democontrol/ContextHelpDemo.lpi It demonstrates context sensitive help.
You need the example.chm of chmmaker. See tools/chmmaker/README.txt.

Thanks, mattias!

Thanks, added some more resiliency in issue 22472 as well as openurl test

... couldn't get URL to work (know nothing about how URLs are built up for CHM help), and have to go now. Think patch could be useful as-is but obviously much more if proper url is used.

Thanks,
Reinier

... updated patch that shows working URL handling.
