Minor wording tweaks.
...
Kludged the extra-wide table that summarizes the manifest template language
(works with LaTeX, but is an *evil* kludge and could well break LaTeX2HTML
or similar...).

Updated docs to list all the new methods and functions. The docs are
...
now complete, but probably still not very helpful or friendly.
Note: two very large tables (of key names, and of character names) were
added; these tables format terribly, and need some reworking.

The addition of rint() (by Peter Schneider-Kamp; I forgot to mention
...
that before) in the previous patch has one problem; rint() is not in
the C math library on all platforms (e.g. not for VC++). Make it
conditional on HAVE_RINT.
