Maybe have a [HELP patch_name1|patch_name2]...[/HELP] inside comments to mark the start and end of help text. Wouldn't hurt if it included any of the patching comments etc, just to make things simpler for everyone.
For any GUI to be useful to me, I need it to do a diff with another patch file so I can migrate my custom settings. Otherwise, it's not going to be useful at all.
