   I think it's better to add "media files" than to replace "help files".
   Help files are not, generally speaking, media files except by the
   broadest and most unusual definition.

I agree that help files are not media files.  My point was that help
files are documentation, and thus already "covered" (roughly) by
"manuals".  So, s/help/media/ is actually an elision of two operations:
removing "help files" and adding "media files".  Anyway, no big deal;
next time i'll try to explain myself better.

   With that tiny emendation, the change is so small I feel ok about
   installing it myself, so I did.  (Plus a Texinfo fix. :)  I didn't bother
   updating the web site, etc., since I know more changes are coming :).

Cool.

   For future changes: when it comes to *.texi, I find unidiffs simpler
   to read.  I'll make the context diffs to rms :).

Yeah, the extra effort was for RMS; glad to hear you'll handle that.
