Fix the Syntax Dictionary on Linux so that it displays in the IDE instead of the system default web browser #7

The problem with Syntax Dictionary on Linux is that it uses web/js in a browser widget on a card, which is rather Wonky when used on certain Linux(s) with windowing managers other than traditional Gnome / GTK. It works fine on say Ubuntu Studio (with KDE Plasma) but has strange behavior running under Elementary OS with Enlightenment WM, for example. One work around of sorts could be to include a 'Syntax Browser' palette that is written in straight xTalk script without the browser widget bits. In fact I've already updated MaxV's 'fast dictionary' stack and used that to create a rough version of this browser.
