Re: [U2] Embedded help as hypertext

you can page up with HELP too, if you use the right terminfo for your terminal emulator.
I like to set my terminal for 132x44, but if my term width is >80 then HELP starts to mess up drawing it's boxes and placing the text. At 12 columns, it's an unreadable mess. UVHELP doesn't try to draw boxes, so works fine.

One oddity--if you just type UVHELP with no arguments, it displays help for HELP
