Edit Quick Help text?

07 Jan 2021, 09:15When a player types "Help" during the game, there's a default set of text. Is it possible to edit this?
(Why, you ask? Well for example, part of the text says "Moving around: Press the compass buttons..." Maybe in my game, compass buttons are intentionally not displayed, and I don't want to create player confusion by suggesting they use something that isn't there. Or maybe I want to add text referencing a command that's unique to my game.)

(And I did check to make sure it wasn't an element I had created and forgotten about! My game code does not contain the word 'help' anywhere, so it's something hard-coded.)
