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>The panel of the Time preferences is split into two tabs:</p>
<h2><a id="date-time" name="date-time">Date &amp; Time</a></h2>
<img src="../../images/prefs-images/time-time.png" alt="time-time.png" width="495" height="348" />
<p>On the left side, you can set the day of the month by simply clicking on it in the calendar. You change the month and year by clicking on it and using the up/down arrows to the right or the cursor keys on your keyboard.</p>
<p>Similarly, you set the time. There are two modes for the clock:</p>
<table summary="layout" border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0">
<tr><td><span class="menu">Local Time</span></td><td>&#160;</td><td>to display your local time.</td></tr>
<tr><td><span class="menu">GMT</span></td><td>&#160;</td><td>to display Greenwich Mean Time.</td></tr>
</table>
<h2><a id="timezone" name="timezone">Timezone</a></h2>
<img src="../../images/prefs-images/time-timezone.png" alt="time-timezone.png" width="495" height="348" />
<p>Simply find and choose your location from the drop-down menu and the list of cities and press <span class="button">Set Time Zone</span> to set your zone.</p>
<p><span class="button">Revert</span> brings back the settings that were active when you started the Time preferences.</p>
