OK, I'm confused.

Should it be:

[Desktop Entry]
Name=GNOME DiskFree

<snip>

Exec=gdiskfree
Icon=gnome-diskfree.png
Terminal=0
Type=Application
ghelp:gdiskfree

OR:

[Desktop Entry]
Name=GNOME DiskFree

<snip>

Exec=gdiskfree
Icon=gnome-diskfree.png
Terminal=0
Type=Application
gdiskfree/gdiskfree.sgml

Will either work? Will the second pass the correct url to Nautilus for help display?
