Update of /var/cvs/busybox/loginutils
In directory winder:/tmp/cvs-serv16690/loginutils

Modified Files:

Log Message:
Patch from Thomas Cameron:

    Hello all,
	    This patch adds more "Help" text to the config system.  Almost  
    all applets now have a help entry.  Also, I cleaned up the spacing of
    the existing text so that things are consistent.  This patch is against
    this morning's CVS.
