Hey ho - it's reliable and quick to get I suppose; but I see no real
problems moving it out into a .src file and translating it.

It's all pretty horrible really; we have this beautiful document /
layout engine and we go and do nasty things like this for (essentially)
pages of the documentation ;-) Could we not throw up the help browser
instead showing a page with this content ? There is already just such a
help page ;-) presumably it is already translated, and then perhaps we
could kill those strings in cmdlinehelp.cxx almost completely.
All the best,
Michael.
