Description

Old Windows Help files can be unpacked and converted for inspection, migration, or archival work.

It is useful for developers, technical writers, and archivists who need text or structure from `.hlp` documentation. Decompiled output may be incomplete or tied to legacy formatting, and users should respect the rights and licenses of the original help files.
