garbled 259b42afe7 Some cleanups in how help is handled. Now print a dialog box saying that
help could not be found when no help files are available.  When the help
window dissapears, redraw the screen so the menu isn't invisible.

garbled fbbe4d12db Initial import of sushi.
Sushi is an interactive, menu-based program that is designed to aid
the user or administrator with administrative and complex tasks on thier
machines.

Sushi provides a menu of various functions that the user can perform on
his or her machine.  Once the user selects a desired function, the
function is either performed outright, or in most cases, the user is
asked to fill in a simple form with required and option information,
which is then processed by sushi, and the action occurs.

The programming interface for sushi is very simple.  There are
directories containing various files, such as menu indexes, or forms for
the user to fill out.  These files are interpreted by sushi to generate
the menus the user sees on his/her screen.  When the form is filled out
by the user, the entries are passed as command-line arguments to a
program, or script contained in one of the subdirectories.  In this way,
it is possible to add new entries to the sushi menu structure, by simply
adding a new menu item, form and script, the binary does not need to be
recompiled to take advantage of this new menu.
