Bug Description

Currently the help pages use the default stylesheet as created by the 'rst2html' docutils tool. It's okay, but we'd like a stylesheet that fits with the rest of the site branding.

The stylesheet should be a separate css file, stored in sloecode/public/heml.css. It should then be linked in to the generated HTML files by editing the Makefile, pointing rst2html at the new stylesheet path (and telling it not to generate the default one).

Update: We need to embed the stylesheet information into the generated HTML pages, since the pages may be served from any URL prefix (such as '/sloecode/'). We don't know what this prefix is at install-time, which is when we generate the HTML files. docutils supports this, it just needs to be tweaked in make_help.py.

An alternative would be to render docutils ReSt files as they are requested, but that seems like a lot of work for a help page...
