I think this, especially the context-sensitive help, is a great
idea, even though I doubt I'll be able to use it.  In the ongoing
battle against disk quotas, I gzip all the help files and then
go through and add ".gz" by hand to the anchor URL's as needed.
Hence lynx won't find the configured-in help-file URL's in my
case.

Like I said, I think it's a great idea anyway, so I guess this is
just an example of unexpected consequences in rare circumstances,
or something.
