I've burnt out for tonight, so here's a status update before I go to
bed.  I'm working on:

   - Convert command documentation from literate comments (visible in
     user manual) to into cmd_help (visible in "darcs foo --help").

There's more work than I thought this morning, so there's a good chance
(perhaps two in three) that I won't have the base translation done by
Monday morning.  If that happens I probably won't be able to grind on
this until next weekend.

  * Refactor user manual's title.
  
  It is useful to put "user manual" in the title, because it tells
  readers and reminds authors who the document is for.
  
  Removing the (now long) version from the title makes it less
  overwhelming, and adding it to the metadata block makes it propagate
  *as* metadata to the output formats (e.g. HTML "meta" tags, pdfinfo).

  * Don't render weird single-page "patch-theory" document.
  
  The content probably ought to be folded into a separate paper on patch
  theory, where the target audience is mathematicians rather than end
  users (user manual) or developers (haddock).

  * Refactor layout of "Environment Variables" section.
  
  In particular, use definition list markup for all the environment
  variables.  This hopefully obviates the (ugly) list of hyperlinks at
  the top of the document -- except for DARCS_EMAIL, which is defined
  elsewhere.  To this end I have added a stub DARCS_EMAIL description.
  
  Also fixed heading depth and use title case in headings.
