[etoys-dev] More Objects in Reference Manual

[karl ramberg]

I suggest breaking this into two chapters, one with the category
items, one with the other (misc) items. Most of the non category items
are of limited use or outside the scope of (current) Etoys.

If you find bugs or other problems in Etoys you can file them at
