[IDE] find documentation function

Judith,

You have a sort of "find documentation" feature in the IDE which seems to
ask the user to provide the location of the documentation for the IDE and
for Win32Lib, as well as for the ruler.  In my RunDemos program, I made a
series of routines which allowed the user to find the location of pertinent
files much easier.

Works like this:
 If the selected file's location *wasn't* in a config file already, a box
popped up which allowed the user to either:
1.   cause an automatic search of the disk in any pre-specified directories
(in one or more directories, and for one or more file names), or,
2.  bring up a dialog box which allows the user to scan through a tree of
directories and files until they find the one they want to use.

Whatever the user selects gets put into a config file, and I provided that
the user could force an opportunity to re-select the location  by right
clicking on the same button that would otherwise jump to the config pointed
file.

If you're interested, I could try to modify it to work with the IDE for you.
