a9b434857b Minor tweak: Change name of "Master partition editor" to "FDISK partition
editor" here and in the docs.  People have come to understand "FDISK"
as a more generic term and have been complaining that they didn't
equate the "master" partition editor with the old fdisk stage and were
confused.

fb39553377 Add note about looking in the FAQ directory. Nobody will bother
to read it, of course, but I can only try! :-)

e68b53ea5f It took a non-native speaker of English to show me that I couldn't
speak english.  In this doc I say that "2.0.5 fills a much needed
gap between 2.0R and 2.1."  No wonder the translators were confused!
I'm trying to say that we _wanted_ a gap between 2.0.5 and 2.1?  That
such gaps are much needed?  Wurgh!  Not what I was trying to say at
all!  It should have (and now does) read: "2.0.5 fills a critical
gap between 2.0R and 2.1."  Critical gap, not much needed. :-)
Translators:  You may wish to adjust your own translations as
well if you tried to translate my original botch!  Send me diffs
as soon as you can.  Thanks!

116c3f2691 Move these files here; they're really only relevant to the release,
and it makes English orthogonal with the other languages.

9faa4e6750 My first round at all the help files needed explicitly by various menus.
Folks - please review these!  I'm quite sleepy at the moment, and I'm
sure that some of this could be worded better.  I'd like to have at least
a reasonable syntax pass over this before handing it off to the translation
folks!  Thanks!  Feel free to commit any changes directly if it's any time
in the next 8 hours, BTW. I won't mind since I'll be asleep!

d37bc70266 Revise confusing wording about text fields. It now reads
"the amount of text above the current point" instead of "the amount of text
remaining", which was of the exact opposite meaning!  Urk.
