Thanks very much :-).  And of course thanks to Federico and Miguel
for the GtkXmHTML widget!

I just wanted to mention that the gnome-help stuff is still very much
a work in progress, and we will be hacking at it heavily for some
time still.  We have not gotten around to defining the URL/URI
"standard" for things like "man:ls" and so forth, there is plenty
to be done vis-a-vis DocBook, etc.  What we have been doing is building
up all the different components for the help system (and, incidentally,
a web browser :-) and you'll see things take shape over the next week.

If you have any comments please do pass them on!
