Did you ever compile eAMH's special version of assistant?

Slightly off-=topic, but I did manage to get eAMH (Australian Medicines Handbook) working with the standard QT assistant program. I copied amhdata.qhc and amhdata.qch into a folder accessible by Easy Debian.

For what is worth, I used Easy Debian instead. QT assistant is available in Debian squeeze (qt4-dev-tools 4.6.3). I created the following script in /usr/share/applications/hildon/eAMH.desktop (as per Easy Debian instructions) :
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=eAMH
Icon=eAMH
Exec=debbie assistant -collectionFile /opt/eAMH/amhdata.qhc
Type=application
Unfortunately, eAMH does not automatically have keyboard focus in this configuration. Buried in Easy Debian's help file is the suggesiton to run xbindkeys and Fn+Return, that works.

Now we can have eAMH on our mobile phones, using the same license as our desktop version and without using a wireless connection. Something our N900 can do that an iPhone cannot...!
