2documentation module provides a simple means to add help throughout the
3application. It checks for the existence of html2 package needed to support
4fully html panel which supports css.  The class defined here takes a title for
5the particular help panel, a pointer to the html documentation file of interest
6within the documentation tree along with a 'command' string such as a page
7anchor or a query string etc.  The path to the doc directory is retrieved
8automatically by the class itself.  Thus with these three pieces of information
9the class generates a panel with the appropriate title bar and help file
10formatted according the style sheets called in the html file.  Finally, if an
11old version of Python is running and the html2 package is not available the
12class brings up the default browser and passes the file:/// string to it.  In
13this case however the instruction portion is usually not passed for security
14reasons.
