Help system polish and trimming

[noahgibbs]

The help system, especially the tips system and initial online help, should be overridden by RWOT and replaced with something limited and appropriate. It should mention only verbs that RWOT actually supports well.

Where possible, other sources of online help should be updated (e.g. the tools popup hardcodes all kinds of outdated and weird help text.) But the priority should be on anything visible to end-users, with a secondary focus on anything visible to world-builders.

A lot of this is done in XML files (including the +tool popup, I think,) so I should see what parts can be repaired in the Tree of WOE. Those parts can potentially be handed off to Sarah, Will, etc.

Help appears to be in a lot of files under SkotOS:HelpNodes, which are WOE-editable.

Tips are in SkotOS:Tips:Intro, which is WOE-editable. There's a second list in SkotOS:Tip that I think is unused.

The first pass of this should probably be done by @saraht45, with an emphasis of writing a doc in the master SkotOS-Docs explaining how instances of SkotOS should do this (for instance, all the tips are in Woe, and can leverage acmds for auto-typing commands into Orchil), and then the specifics for vRWOT edited by @wip-abramson.

Would removing SkotOS:Tip turn off the tips on login?

[saraht45]

No, it appears the login tip calls upon SkotOS:Tips:Intro, which is the same database the \@tip command uses.
