@graeme: does docview work with chm files? i haven't looked at it, yet, if if 
does, i'm curious if it will find things that lhelp doesn't in the same chm 
files when invoked by placing the cursor on a {dang, what terms to use??} word 
in the IDE and hitting F1 (or CTRL-F1 for docview as an external app)...
