My first (uninformed) reaction would have been: What's the point of using
a different format than the widely used and standardized HTML?
The answer is: When I use it with kchmviewer, it provides fast scrolling
through the (huge) TOC, a search index, and a fast search facility.
Which is not built-in into browsers and is often emulated with slow JavaScript.
It is also viewable in 'okular', but it shows a funny page numbering :-)
