[New-bugs-announce] [issue21688] Improved error msg for make.bat htmlhelp

[Olive Kilburn]

New submission from Olive Kilburn:

Currently if someone runs make.bat htmlhelp without first installing Htmlhelp Workshop, it outputs: 
c:\program not a valid . . . .

This isn't very informative if you don't know you need Htmlhelp Workshop. The included patch has make.bat give a more helpful message. If this isn't a good fix(?), I could try clarifying the readme instead.
