If application is using CPU then it has not halted.
How are you running the program? From an xterm/dtterm? If so does it print any warnings?
i simply run it from terminal
$ xchm
no warning message is displayed.

What about if you run it with
unset DISPLAY
xchm -display no-such-host:0
or try giving the path to a *.chm file.
Following message displayed
bash-3.00# unset DISPLAY
bash-3.00# xchm -displat no-such-host:0
09:48:44: Error: wxWidgets could not open display for '': exiting.

You had "-displat" not "-display"
But the good thing is it is trying to create some widgets.
I change it and then following message shown
bash-3.00# unset DISPLAY
bash-3.00# xchm -display no-such-host:0
09:57:49: Error: wxWidgets could not open display for '': exiting.
Thanx porter for replying
my problem is solved.
The problem was that i was using different version of wxWidgets but recomendation was different.
