About: Links to ChangeLog, User's Guide, etc.
=============================================
Create an About dialog box that has links to open the ChangeLog
(/usr/X11R6/share/doc/XFree86-xserv/changelog.html), /tmp/XWin.log,
and, if they are present, the User's Guide, Contributor's Guide, and
Frequently Asked Questions using cygwin_conv_to_win32_path() and
ShellExecute(). See the cygstart source in the cygutils package if you
need a simple example of how to do this.
FatalError Dialog Box
=====================
Change the FatalError message box to a dialog box with links to
open the same files described in the About box topic.
These are both so easy and useful that I might just do them myself
unless someone beats me to them.
