+A {\bf book} consists of three files: header file, contents file and index file.
+You can make a regular zip archive of these files, plus the HTML and any image files,
+for wxHTML (or helpview) to read; and the .zip file can optionally be renamed to .htb.
\wxheading{Header file (.hhp)}
Header file must contain these lines (and may contain additional lines which are ignored) :
\begin{verbatim}
-Contents file=@filename.hhc@
-Index file=@filename.hhk@
-Title=@title of your book@
-Default topic=@default page to be displayed.htm@
+Contents file=<filename.hhc>
+Index file=<filename.hhk>
+Title=<title of your book>
+Default topic=<default page to be displayed.htm>
\end{verbatim}
All filenames (including the Default topic) are relative to the
{\bf Localization note:} In addition, .hhp file may contain line
\begin{verbatim}
-Charset=@rfc_charset@
+Charset=<rfc_charset>
\end{verbatim}
-which specifies what charset (e.g. "iso8859_1") was used in contents

with some error. See also
