The last figures in the manual using the Unity desktop have been replaced
with equivalent figures using Gnome 3. There should now be no figures
remaining from Unity.
This is a revision of the profile part of the manual in the light of the
changes for V4.1. Text has been moved around, some new text added or
rewritten. Graphics has been replaced to reflect the UI for V4.1,
including Tomaz's button bar and Louisa's new buttons for that bar.

While it seems obvious that you need a named dive site in order to track
its coordinates, apparently people try to have no location name but
distinct coordinates which at this time we do not support.

Except for the images involving the dive profile, all the images now are

This adds Gnome-based screenshots to the manual for most of the images not
involving the profile. More of the images remain to be done.
I rewrote small sections of the text to reflect some of the recent
changes. Several images still need to be replaced. The profile images will
be done once the profile panel has been finalised. Some text also still
needs working.
