last? boulder change - Guidebook update
Describe the new feature of m<dir> making it feasible to move to a boulder'd spot without pushing. Giving specific information among vague descriptions is awkward.... While in there, move a handful of sentences to separate lines as per the 'roff guidelines. I did the same for Guidebook.tex even though it's not needed there, to try to keep things parallel.
