OK, I did. And I learned that it is for the embedded help view. But I 
too learned that on ubuntu they use firefox. So why can't we? And I 
guess in an ideal world there should be a package with little more 
than the mozilla rendering engine which mozilla, firefox and other 
programs could depend on if the want to display html data.
