I think shipping a pdf document is not really good. I agree that we finally need an online help (blocked on merging of the font_handler refactoring) and we should put some work porting it onto the website (so that we have the same information twice, once in-game and once online).

I disagree that we should have plaintext documentation on the Wiki. We would need to keep two documentations up to date which is horrible and not something I want to do. That does not mean that nobody can come up with the relevant information right now that we can put into the online help, however whatever is going to be written now should be written with the idea that it will be converted to the ingame help soon.

The ingame help will be a tree view¹ with links. All current help buttons will open this help window with the correct page opened. It can contain strategies, tutorial text and will contain the reference.
