more extended command help

For the searching capability offered by '# ?', use ':' instead of 's'
to activate it.  Otherwise, if the player typed ':', menu processing
would handle that and would search the few menu entries (for selectors
'a', 's'--now ':', and maybe 'z') when we're interested in searching
the data displayed via many separator lines.

I left 's' as the selector for "show all, clear search" once a search
has been performed, but perhaps that ought to be switched to ':' too.
