Hi,

I've implemented the help button. The implementation is a simple
window with some text in it, which is big enough to be able to give
some detail, does not suffer from the annoyances of tooltips (never
around long enough and popup when you don't need them) or the problems
with a full Java Help system (slow and large)

There is an issue with the generic implementation of the
QuickHelpDialog in that the window size is currently hard-coded. I'm
not sure how to get a text field to resize sensibly yet. pack()ing
just causes it to assume screen height! Clues appreciated.

Joe.
