CHM The CHM file format and its associated .chm filename extension, is a proprietary file format developed by Microsoft. Its full name is compiled HTML Help. CHM was released to the public in 1997 as a bundle with Microsoft Windows 98 and was primarily designed to facilitate documentation on the Windows platform, particularly help files for software applications that run on the Microsoft Windows platform. Essentially, a CHM file is a collection of HTML files packed as a single compressed file. Though the format is proprietary, it was successfully reverse engineered by the late 90's to early 2000s allowing the development of open source readers that are capable of opening files with the .chm extension. The format was succeeded by the LIT format.
RAR The .rar filename extension is a popular and partially open archive file format associated with the compression and decompression tool WinRAR. The format was developed by Eugene Roshal with its initial release in 1993. It, like many other archive formats, acts as the compressed data container for one or several files. The archive format can maintain the directory structure of the compressed archive even when unpacked to a directory. The RAR file format supports multi volume file compression where an archive is saved as a sequence of several files of a given size.
