Hello Jon,

Very interesting find. There has never been a “help.cgi” file in the code base as far as I can see.

It looks like I added those lines there, but I do not know why and when and what the hell I was thinking.

So, please feel free to create something new.

I am not sure if you will be able to fill a whole page with all those links, but it might be a great place for users to start.

My only thought is that it is probably easier to link the wiki since we can update that a lot easier.
