Joachim Seemer e564a3c1f7 * Added more CSS control for menus, buttons, app names, shell commands, paths.
* Always wanting keyboard graphics for shortcuts, Jorge suggested simple borders
  for simplicity. Great idea! Added.
* Added Jorge's rounded boxes for note/warning/stop plus symbols.
* If anyone wants to fine tune esp. colours, go ahead. Jorge and I are both
  challenged in that department. :)
* A few small corrections and reformatting here and there.
* Excluded the topic "Installation" from the contents until it's further along.

<p>While a key philosophy of Haiku is to cut down on options and have sensible defaults instead, there are some things that have to be configured or can be set to individual preference. You find all panels in Deskbar's <span class="menu">Preferences</span> menu.</p>
