This commit implements the .tex-based online help system in LON-CAPA. It
may be necessary to manually run loncom/build/help_graphics_converter.pl
and doc/help/rebuildLabelHash.pl after a cvs update, and
loncapa_apache.conf may need to be manually copied to /etc. (The
loncapafiles.lpml has been updated.)

After merging this, the URL http://[loncapahost]/adm/help/Foils.hlp
should display a help file.

Also, some *very* out-of-date files have been removed from the /doc
directory.

Numerical Response problems can require units. In the problem editing form,
place the desired unit in the \textbf{Unit} field. For information about
what units the system accepts, see http://capa4.lite.msu.edu/demolibrary/Links/UnitsSymbolsT2.html.
The computer will accept the answer in any of its accepted unit formats.
For example, if the answer to a problem is {}``1ft'', the computer will
accept {}``12in'' as correct.
