FWIW, I use the wx.html.HtmlHelpController() widget. Then I just write
simple HTML files for the actual content. It doesn't appear to be included
in the Demo, but you can find out what you need to know in the wxWidgets
documentation.

I use helpblocks from www.helpblocks.com. The author is Julian Smart
who also happened to be the original wxWidgets author. It can produce
Microsoft CHM format as well as the native wxWidgets format. As part of
the BitPim project I have code that converts from the wxWidgets format
to AppleHelp.
