chm - 如何打开 .hxs 文件？

Question

我知道 hxs 文件是编译后的帮助文件，是 .chm 文件的替代品，但我似乎无法打开它们。

我读到您使用帮助资源管理器 dexplore.exe 阅读它们：C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\Help 9\dexplore.exe

当我尝试使用 dexplore 打开文件时，它会要求我将文件保存到磁盘，或使用其他程序打开。

有任何想法吗？

Answer 1

Not sure if you want to look through them programmatically or with some tool, but Help Explorer can open hxs files and extract contents. CHM files (the precursor to hxs) were a custom binary format with indexing and other data at the beginning of the file, and a zip archive in the rest.

You can also decompile hxs using HxComp.exe

EDIT: That link appears to be broken/down or something, but your answer did lead me to find Help Explorer Viewer, which may or may not be the same program, but it does the job.

Edit: I've deleted all broken links to spare confusion.

Answer 2

After a bit more research, it looks like these files must be installed into the IDE when you install 3rd party tools. There is a diagnostic tool called Namespace#. You can see details about it here:

Answer 3

HXS 文件扩展名 - Microsoft 帮助编译的存储文件。它只是其中之一：HxI、HxS、HxC、HxT、HxK 女巫被称为 MS HTML Help 2。

Help Explorer Viewer可以用来打开这个文件。
