The tutorial is too big to put here... That's why I've included it with the zipfile, including sample source files, and the files I used to build the HTML help file.

Good Job Friend..Nice works. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
Wouldn't the chm file be the best place for the tutorial info? You should probably mention that you have used full paths in your zip file so the file turns up on the desktop instead of below the folder people put it in. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
