Thank you for your time and your help, Kai. I really appreciate your disposition :)

I managed to build the info page. And yes, it has the same content as the
html I already have.

This business of having to compile even the help pages will exclude a few
future users I'm afraid. I think an easier and simpler way to do it should
be found.
