Add button to show the manual page of a screensaver (or mplayer) #15

I think it would be convenient to add a button to show the manual page of a
screensaver so that the user could look at all the possible options to add
in the textbox without resorting to the terminal.

You could make it check if yelp is installed, if it is, get the output of 'man
--location [screensaver]', if it is a file, run 'yelp [file]'

Otherwise, if kwrite exists, check if 'man --location [screensaver]' exists, if 
it
does use 'man [screensaver] | kwrite --stdin'

If nothing can be found, check if 'man --location [screensaver]' exists, if it 
does
use 'xterm -e man [screensaver]'
