Jordan K. Hubbard 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!
