OK, I'll do that along with your relative arg suggestions some time this week.

Just the things I mentioned to you on IRC last week.

- Improve the {subject} matching
- add :viusage and :exusage commands
- perhaps break it into 'pages' - still created on the fly as you requested
- maybe implement a tag-like system or, at least, make sure _all_
references to mappings/commands/settings are links
- i18n...well one day.

That's part of it but I'd like to match Vim's algorithm as closely as
possible so things like partial matches and case insensitivity should
also be added.

Mate, it's already excellent.  I couldn't believe how comprehensive it
was the first time I fired up Vimperator. Great work!
