5cc0a9b252 Generate index.html from index.html.in. This avoids having to modify the
index to update the version number; boilerplate.tex remains the only document
source for this information.

d03e9e34de Don't point readers to rand, point to random! And make it a hyperlink
while you're at it.

Also, when discussing order of reading, make it clear that chapter 2
is assumed background material for the remainder of the manual.
That's needed for terminology if nothing else!

bdadf0f7f3 Explain comments at the start of chapter 3. This is needed since they
appear in the examples without any further explanation, and the
tutorial doesn't have this information explicit anywhere else.

ea07f2751a setup_column_alignments(): Adding valign=baseline to the <td> tag

79189b5fd5 do_cmd_seetext(): Clean up so we get proper nesting of <div>s. This
fixes a rendering problem on IE5.

General adjustments to the table* environments, including using
<thead> and <tbody>.  Attempt to adjust the vertical alignment of the
table cells so that the baseline of the first cell matches the
baseline of the remaining cells:  When the first cell is small and the
second cell of the same row is multi-line, the first cell was
vertically centered by default.  Specifying valign=baseline fixes the
problem on IE, but Netscape seems to ignore both valign=top and
valign=baseline (even though valign is NS's fault!).  Make the
horizontal alignment of 'p' columns left instead of center (for the
headings).

630b811676 Two changes suggested by Jan Pieter Riegel:
(1) Fix reference to pwd.error to be KeyError -- there is no pwd.error
and pwd.getpwnam() raises KeyError on failure.

(2) Add cookie support, by placing the 'Cookie:' header, if present,
in the HTTP_COOKIE environment variable.

0604d72318 Lots of changes to support loading alternative color name database.
You can switch database by just loading the new one; the list window
and nearest colors adapt to the new database.

Some reorganizing of code.  Also, the name of the database file is
stored in the ~/.pynche pickle.  If it can't be loaded, fallbacks are
used.
