Hello to the list from me as well (Andrew Haines). I've been subscribed
for a couple of years but never posted.

Learning about reading and writing chm files is one of the most
interesting things I have worked on while programming.

I recently discovered a bug in a chm made with FPC where the file index
was invalid somehow when I made a chm with 8000 + files (android's
online docs). I suppose there is an error with the top level PMGI block.
I will try to find it this week. chmls says there are 0 files in the chm
though at a first glance the index looks okay in a hex editor.
