[hobbit] xmon 4.3beta2 - Bug with --tooltips=never

I have added the documented option "--tooltips=never" to my BBGENOPTS setting. Documented behavior is to show the COMMENT next to the host name (same as with Hobbit 4.2). However, in 4.3 this also is showing the value of any DESCR tag on the host, which is not compatible behavior, and is ugly (the DESCR value used to be only included on the INFO page). -Alan

The man page for 4.3beta2 ( 4.2.3) states:

  --tooltips=[always,never,main]
       Determines  which  pages  use  tooltips  to  show   the
       description  of the host (from the COMMENT entry in the
       bb-hosts(5) file). If set to always, tooltips are  used
       on all pages. If set to never, tooltips are never used.
       If set to main, tooltips are used on  the  main  pages,
       but not on the BB2 (all non-green) or NK (critical sys-
       tems) pages.

Missing in this text is the default setting which corresponds to --tooltips=main. This is the setting we use.

Ie tried --tooltips=never and now see the COMMENT value after the hostname which is the correct behaviour (see bb-hosts(5)). The DESCR values only show up in the info column.
