Someone mentioned help with regard to the Style Manual.  I have a
similar question.  I am interested in implementing Help on Context as
described in section 8.1.1 of the Style Manual.  Briefly, from that
section:

	"Using the mouse, people can use the On Context entry in the
	Help menu.  The pointer shape changes to the Help pointer
	shape.  Selecting a field with the Help pointer displays help
	on that field.  After the selection, the Help pointer returns
	to its previous shape.  To cancel the context-sensitive help
	mode, users press <Esc>."

What would be the most straight-forward way of programming this
functionality?  I am using version 1.0.

Thanks,
