The tex2rtf utility can be used to help generate the control files as 
well as the html, but that means that your source needs to be in a 
limited subset of TeX, which is pretty awkward for most people to use.

The structure and content of the HTML Help control files is described in 
the docs, and as long as you don't have lots of content it's not too 
hard to maintain it by hand.  It's also fairly easy to generate with a 
bit of Python scripting if you want to take that approach.
