Hello Rolf,
> 1) When LHelp opens (regardless if opens with Tools->CHM-Help or F1
> context help) it opens with 11 tabs.
> Some of them have a caption, some of them are [unknown]. The [unknown]

That is my TODO for lHelp, You can get some of last patches here
https://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=38250
, but it not in a repo now.
> 2) One of [unknown] tabs is completely empty:
> "ms-its:toc.chm::/index.html not found!"
I don`t what about it. I can get a new chm`s here for try.
https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,53114.0.html
It is without a structural errors.
> 3) There are two lcl tabs. One show a message "Loaded:
> ms-its:lcl.chm::/index.html in ... ms", the other one doesn't show a
> load message.
I think I am going fix that later.
> 3) There's no possibility to search in all files simultanously. May be

Patch sub 1 is not applied yet.
> 4) The first context search is a racing car. All following context
> searches are a bicycle. Time for a coffee.

> What's the meaning of the database definition fields in
