implemented self-documenting (online) help system
* the new "?" (help) command can be used to look up
help topics.
* help topics are index from $SCITECOPATH/women/*.woman.tec
files.
* looking up a help topic opens the corresponding "womanpage"
and jumps to the position of the topic (it acts like an anchor
into the document).
* styling is performed by *.woman.tec files.
* Setting up the Scintilla view and munging the *.tec file
is performed by the new "woman.tes" lexer.
On supporting UIs (Gtk), womanpages are shown in a variable-width
font.
* Woman pages are usually not hand-written, but generated from manpages.
A special Groff post-processor grosciteco has been introduced for this
purpose. It is much like grotty, but can output SciTECO macros for styling
the document (ie. the *.woman.tec files).
It is documented in its own man-page.
* grosciteco also introduces sciteco.tmac - special Troff macros
for controlling the formatting of the document in SciTECO.
It also defines .SCITECO_TOPIC which can be used to mark up
help topics/terms in Troff markup.
* Woman pages are generated/formatted by grosciteco at compile-time, so
they will work on platforms without Groff (ie. as on windows).
* Groff has been added as a hard compile-time requirement.
* The sciteco(1) and sciteco(7) man pages have been augmented with
help topic anchors.
