Proposal Smart Help

Proposed Feature
Detailed context sensitive information on each configurable parameter in the preferences panel. This information will be automatically extracted from the html help reference section which has been written with this use in mind.

Developer Backing

 * James Crook I have done some development work which could be built on for this. The most useful part is a change in ShuttleGui.

Use Cases

 * Shorter descriptions: This will allow us to use very short descriptions in the preferences panel, e.g. just a tick box with the word 'Overdub' beside it. Experienced users will already know what this does.  Inexperienced users or users who have forgotten what the parameters in a particular parameter group do can click on the title for a group to get a description for each parameter in the group.
 * Audacity GUI as the index: Instead of reading the manual and finding the right place in it, Audacity can find the right place and just present the information you asked for.
