Applied patch by Andras Mohari <mayday at varoshaza . nagyatad . hu>

  * Reduces the number of '!' chars...
  * Removes unnecessary spaces before ':' and '!' chars.
  * Changes the title of Appendix X to 'MPlayer skin format'.
  * Improves(?) wording in some cases.
  * Adds CODE tags around some options and filenames.

Plus some further wording fixes by me, two dangling links and converted
a few ASCII unordered lists into proper HTML ones.
