[Cuis] Menu 'Help' / 'Useful expressions' text window --> workspace?

[Juan Vuletich]

Hi Hannes,

Just uploaded 3 new updates. The last one includes your updated text. I 
added your requests, and a couple more I found.

BTW, remember that in Cuis you have World / Open / Message Names to look 
for selectors!

Cheers,
Juan Vuletich

Ps. Too tired right now to upload an updated image... Please use the 
change sets.
