>I'm basically with you on that issue, but I have found the Hacker's Guide to be the sole exception to date. It's the only .CHM I've found that doesn't have me mousing/clicking inopportunely and causing me to forget where I came from and what I was originally after.

Jim;
Yes, I too feel that the only chm file easy to use and of real value is from the Hackers Guide. I am a speed-reader and read over 1200 words a minute and find myself many times with 5 different books open and reading from each one on a specific topic. That ability got me through engineering college and then on to history and political science degrees. Try that while working full time as an electronic technician, married and doing major remodeling on our house and scanning a computer to "read". To be honest – I hate to read anything on a computer – the screen is too small to allow me to read quickly – it is as if I am looking through a pin hole when I should be using all my vision.
Paper has a place and with the advent of computers I am sure more trees have been sacrificed then ever before towards the goal of a "paperless society".
