 ShellAbout()           Displays the typical Windows about DialogBox
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   Syntax:              ShellAbout( <cMsg> [,<cTitle>] [,<hIcon>] )  --> nil

   Parameters:

   <cMsg>               The description text for the about dialogbox.

   <cTitle>             The title of the about dialogbox. By default
                        it shows "About".

   <hIcon>              The handle of the icon to show. By default
                        it uses the first icon included inside the EXE as
                        resource. It shows the typical Windows icon if
                        no icon is found.

   Returns:             nil

   Observations:        This function is also included now inside FiveWin
                        as MsgAbout. We plan to remove this in next
                        versions and just keep MsgAbout for compatibility
                        with FiveOS2 and fiveDos.

                        It is very usefull as it also shows the amount
                        of memory and resources available.

   Sample:              SAMPLES\\Install.prg
