    textscreen: Tweak to command line to open URL.

    Alexandre-Xavier commented in #520 that the 'start' command line to
    open help URLs doesn't work. According to this page, 'start' is
    actually a cmd.exe built-in and can't be shelled out to directly:

    http://www.dwheeler.com/essays/open-files-urls.html

    This prepends cmd /c to the 'start' command; hopefully this should
    work. It might still be non-ideal if it causes a cmd.exe window to
    briefly pop up; in the long term we should probably switch to the
    ShellExecute() API function instead.
