I should have more specific: It kinda works, in that it creates the CHM
file, but if you tries to use the auto-generated TOC (e.g put everything
marked <H1>, <H2>, or <H3> in the TOC) it flakes out with an extremely
misleading error message (something that implies a permission problem,
if I rember correctly), and no TOC. Reformatting in tidy fixes the
problem. If you don't use the auto-TOC, everything probably works fine.
This is with version (1.2) 4.73.8320.0 (according to the "about" box).
