Windows has

 file.show(zfile, title = "", header = paste("`", topic, "' help", 
	sep=""), delete.file = (zfile!=file), pager = pager)

Probably I should change Windows to use title= instead of header=.
It'll make no difference to the behaviour with the standard Windows
pager, which combines the title and header.

I think tkpager should combine the title and header too, since it
shows each file in a separate window, but the change above would be
enough to solve the bug I reported.

Yes, common to all files displayed in that call.
