Thanks! I was planning to do that, or hoping someone would do it.
We could enhance this a bit:
- also generate HTML
- put the introductory material into a text file rather than
hardcoded into the program
I'd like to have "bzr help introduction" show some of this.
- Include sub-sections for each command showing its syntax and options,
as generated by the help command.
I just merged it from your http server using aaron's new remote-merge
-- a great milestone!
