   2  *  \brief Header: hypertext file browser
   3  *
   4  *  Implements the hypertext file viewer.
   5  *  The hypertext file is a file that may have one or more nodes.  Each
   6  *  node ends with a ^D character and starts with a bracket, then the
   7  *  name of the node and then a closing bracket. Right after the closing
   8  *  bracket a newline is placed. This newline is not to be displayed by
   9  *  the help viewer and must be skipped - its sole purpose is to facilitate
  10  *  the work of the people managing the help file template (xnc.hlp) .
  11  *
  12  *  Links in the hypertext file are specified like this: the text that
  13  *  will be highlighted should have a leading ^A, then it comes the
  14  *  text, then a ^B indicating that highlighting is done, then the name
  15  *  of the node you want to link to and then a ^C.
  16  *
  17  *  The file must contain a ^D at the beginning and at the end of the
  18  *  file or the program will not be able to detect the end of file.
  19  *
  20  *  Laziness/widgeting attack: This file does use the dialog manager
  21  *  and uses mainly the dialog to achieve the help work.  there is only
  22  *  one specialized widget and it's only used to forward the mouse messages
  23  *  to the appropriate routine.
  24  *
  25  *  This file is included by help.c and man2hlp.c
