Well, there's chmlib, which comes with a tool to extract files from the chm,
and archmage, which uses chmlib to make chm readable via apache (which then
could be, presumably, be viewed with a console web browser such as w3m).
Then, there's also something called chmtools.

I didn't test or even try to install any of these programs, it's just the
result of a short search, but it should give you some pointers for
alternatives to xchm.

Anno.
