5d32d4af14 Now we use Subversion, it seems excessive to have an individual $Id$
line for every single .but file at the bottom of each page of the
HTML PuTTY docs. However, we can't _always_ replace that with a
single SVN revision, because there isn't always one available (SVN
still allows mixed working copies in which some files are
deliberately checked out against a different revision).

Hence, here's a mechanism for doing better. It uses `svnversion .'
to determine _whether_ a single revision number adequately describes
the current directory, and replaces all the version IDs with that if
so. If it can't do that, it uses the version IDs as before.

Also, this allows an explicit version string to be passed on the
make command line which will override _both_ these possibilities, so
that release documentation can be clearly labelled with the release
version number.

e22daa87c2 Mention that comp.terminals may also be a useful newsgroup.
I've done this by centralising information about newsgroups in feedback.but
and linking to that from elsewhere; I've also put in a link to Google Groups.

f5a7d348cd Halibut now warns about code paragraph lines which are too long to
fit in the text output format. If only to stop myself getting
pestered with cron stderr messages every night, here are some
changes that remove over-long code lines from the PuTTY manual.

d54e79bde6 Probably about time we mentioned the nascent Unix port in the FAQ.
Not that I desperately want to shout about it just yet, but I feel a
bit bad about the FAQ saying `we don't have a Unix port, anyone who
told you so was wrong'. :-)
