Hmm, that sounds like some more effort has to done to avoid duplicated text. 
Duplicated text (manpage, user's guide, helppages, ...) makes a lot more work to keep 
it up to date with the current implementation :-(

At least some of the text passages are (almost?) the same, e.g. the menu description 
in the manpage looks good as a help text for the built-in help also.

Well, still no brilliant way to handle this topic...
