/**
    @class wxHtmlHelpController

    This help controller provides an easy way of displaying HTML help in your
    application (see @sample{html}, test example).

    The help system is based on @b books (see wxHtmlHelpController::AddBook).
    A book is a logical section of documentation (for example "User's Guide" or
    "Programmer's Guide" or "C++ Reference" or "wxWidgets Reference").
    The help controller can handle as many books as you want.

    Although this class has an API compatible with other wxWidgets help controllers
    as documented by wxHelpController, it is recommended that you use the enhanced
    capabilities of wxHtmlHelpController's API.

    wxHTML uses Microsoft's HTML Help Workshop project files (.hhp, .hhk, .hhc) as
    its native format. The file format is described in @ref overview_html_helpformats.
    The directory @c helpfiles in the @sample{html} contains sample project files.

    Note that the Microsoft's HTML Help Workshop
    (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=00535334-c8a6-452f-9aa0-d597d16580cc)
    also runs on other platforms using WINE (http://www.winehq.org/) and it can
    be used to create the .hpp, .hhk and .hhc files through a friendly GUI.
    The commercial tool HelpBlocks (http://www.helpblocks.com) can also create these files.

    /**
        Constructor.

        @param style
            This is a combination of these flags:
            - wxHF_TOOLBAR: The help window has a toolbar.
            - wxHF_FLAT_TOOLBAR: The help window has a toolbar with flat buttons (aka coolbar).
            - wxHF_CONTENTS: The help window has a contents panel.
            - wxHF_INDEX: The help window has an index panel.
            - wxHF_SEARCH: The help window has a search panel.
            - wxHF_BOOKMARKS: The help window has bookmarks controls.
            - wxHF_OPEN_FILES: Allows user to open arbitrary HTML document.
            - wxHF_PRINT: The toolbar contains "print" button.
            - wxHF_MERGE_BOOKS: The contents pane does not show book nodes.
              All books are merged together and appear as single book to the user.
            - wxHF_ICONS_BOOK: All nodes in contents pane have a book icon.
              This is how Microsoft's HTML help viewer behaves.
            - wxHF_ICONS_FOLDER: Book nodes in contents pane have a book icon, book's
              sections have a folder icon. This is the default.
            - wxHF_ICONS_BOOK_CHAPTER: Both book nodes and nodes of top-level
              sections of a book (i.e. chapters) have a book icon, all other sections
              (sections, subsections, ...) have a folder icon.
            - wxHF_EMBEDDED: Specifies that the help controller controls an embedded
              window of class wxHtmlHelpWindow that should not be destroyed when
              the controller is destroyed.
            - wxHF_DIALOG: Specifies that the help controller should create a
              dialog containing the help window.
            - wxHF_FRAME: Specifies that the help controller should create a frame
              containing the help window.
              This is the default if neither wxHF_DIALOG nor wxHF_EMBEDDED is specified.
            - wxHF_MODAL: Specifies that the help controller should create a modal
              dialog containing the help window (used with the wxHF_DIALOG style).
            - wxHF_DEFAULT_STYLE: wxHF_TOOLBAR | wxHF_CONTENTS | wxHF_INDEX |
              wxHF_SEARCH | wxHF_BOOKMARKS | wxHF_PRINT
