18.14 Mapping and merging CHM
files
You can create an HTML Help system that consists of
multiple CHM files with interfile links. If all the files are always
present, map them. On the other hand, if you are creating a modular Help
system, one or more CHM files can be merged into a main CHM file at run
time, based only on whether or not the other files are present.
