[platform-doc-dev] Note about whitespace in help contexts

["Nick Edgar" <Nick_Edgar@xxxxxxxxxx>]

This also means that if our editing tools apply "free" word wrapping to 
the file, they will corrupt the help contexts.
Please let me know if any of the tools we're using have this problem.

Thanks,
Nick

When making changes to the help contexts (e.g. contexts_Workbench.xml), 
please note that any whitespace (newlines, indentation) are taken 
literally when you use F1.  So it's best to put all the content on one 
line, and let Eclipse wrap the text for you.  If there must be a blank 
line at a particular place, this can be done by inserting a blank line in 
the contexts file, but -not- indenting it.

For more details, see bug 32387.

Thanks,
Nick
