I'm assuming that an entirely new winhlp32.exe has to be written.  If not,
disregard the rest.

I'm not 100% sure of the licensing on this (it's listed as freeware in the
included text file).  It is a .hlp decompiler with c source.  Included is (what
seems to be) a full explanation of the .hlp format (I couldn't find the format
anywhere else).  I have no idea where to find it on the internet (After I
installed MS VC++6, a friend gave it to me to help him with documentation for
one of his programs).  Wikipedia says that .hlp is a proprietary format, so I'm
not sure of the standing on explanations of the format. If it interests anyone,
I'll attach it (but I won't now because of the first argument up there).
