And another one gone, and another one gone . . .
One more item on my 0.9.0 TODO list is complete, since this patch looks
*great*. We now have working online help in linux (can't test the other
platforms). Only two problems:
1) Some files don't exist.
2) Gnome-help crashed twice with:
Assertion failed: ptr != NULL
(file StringUtil.c, line 1210)
I don't know if this is our fault or not.

I can't, but I'm sure someone around here knows how. We could always just
create a UT_** wrapper around the platform-specific stuff.
