Re: GNOME User Guide

["Eugene O'Connor" <Eugene Oconnor Sun COM>]

I have removed the following files from the User Guide:

- The w*.xml wrapper files 
- front.xml, which was part of the wrapper implementation
- The OMF files that referred to the w*.xml files 

So the UG should now display as one book. 

Attached is a list of Help buttons that will now need to change.

Shaun, I am assuming that the names need to change to user-guide.xml -
if that's not the case, let me know.
