  Definition for the toolbox with news actions.
  
+ B<news_archive_monthly>
+ 
+ Displays descending date order a count by month of all news stories:
+ 
+   [% OI.box_add( 'news_archive_monthly' ) %]
+ 
+ Note that this is only supported by PostgreSQL, MySQL and (possibly)
+ SQLite. This is only because I'm not familiar with the date parsing
+ functions available on other databases. (For example, how to select
+ and group by the year and month of a date field.) If you'd like to add
+ your DB let me know.
