Changeset 2158

Message:

Integrated the new -tooltip support into the builder and added tooltips
for the Tool section. Also, fixed a problem whereby you would load an
XML file and then switch to another, and the program would prompt you
to save changes, even though nothing was changed. Empty strings were
being inserted into the XML causing it to appear different than the
original. That's fixed now.
