Tim Edwards a816da60f9 Updated the HTML command reference files to refer to magic version 8.3,
since all of the title images still had 8.2, and the title text still
said 7.3 or 7.4, having not been updated for a long time.

<H3>Shortcuts:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
Key macros <B>?</B> and <B>h</B> implement the command
<B>help</B>.
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<H3>Usage:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<B>help</B>
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<H3>Summary:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
The <B>help</B> command prints the command list for commands
known to the <B>wind3d</B> window, along with a line of text
summarizing the command usage. It is separate from the help
procedure for <B>magic</B> as invoked from the console
(terminal). It does not, for instance, accept a "<I>pattern</I>"
argument.
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<H3>Implementation Notes:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<B>help</B> is implemented as a built-in <B>wind3d</B>
window command in <B>magic</B>. It can only be invoked from
a window created with the <B>specialopen wind3d</B> command,
or the <B>render</B> procedure. Note that the <B>wind3d</B>
window is only available when magic is compiled with the OpenGL
graphics option and invoked with <B>magic -d OGL</B>. <P>
Note that macros of the <B>wind3d</B> window are hard-coded,
and cannot be changed with the <B>macro</B>, <B>gmacro</B>, or
<B>imacro</B> commands. There is no "<TT>:</TT>" macro for
entering commands; to enter commands from the command-line,
use the <A HREF=../tk_path_name.html> <I>tk_path_name</I></A>
command. The default Tk path name of the <B>wind3d</B> window
is "<TT>.magic3d</TT>".
