Update of /cvsroot/netrek/client/netrekxp/resources/docs

Modified Files:

Log Message:
Rewrote TTS centering/refresh code so that text is properly centered and clears properly when the message expires.
The old code used an average text width that was not so good, resulting in poor centering for long messages. The new code measures the length of the message directly.
Also, the W_ClearArea function was not catching the 3 left-most pixels for whatever reason, so the call to this function slightly extends the area to clear.
Updated COW manual to reflect change of tts_pos variable to tts_ypos.
This patch could be applied to other windows clients as well.
