  * gpa.c (gpa_windowTips_show): Moved from here to ...
  * help.c: ... here.  Complete rewrote to read the tips rom a file.
  (get_language): New.
  (gpa_tips.en, gpa_tips.de): New.

This was later removed by the other Bernhard due to a changed GUI
design.  Checking out the source of that time should give some
insight.

Writing it in HTML is probably a good idea because this help format is
supported on all platforms.


Salam-Shalom,
