[Gambas-devel] context help

One thing I think it might be useful to have in the 1.0 release 
is context help - basically, if your cursor is in a keyword or 
symbol, or if you have a keyword or symbol selected, when you 
press F1 to bring up the help browser it would bring up that 
keyword or symbol's page.  An easy way to do this would be to 
have the help browser search for the word that contains the 
cursor, though admittedly the way search works now (ordering 
without regard for relevance) that might be confusing.

I'm just throwing out ideas here, but I may try to implement this 
myself against 0.97 and submit a patch unless someone is already 
working on it.
