HelpParser - Parse help.html and render to tk Text.

HelpText - Display formatted help.html.

HelpFrame - Contain text, scrollbar, and table-of-contents.
(This will be needed for display in a future tabbed window.)

HelpWindow - Display HelpFrame in a standalone window.

copy_strip - Copy idle.html to help.html, rstripping each line.

show_idlehelp - Create HelpWindow.  Called in EditorWindow.help_dialog.
