+Online help works only for system routines which are described in the

+
+The function must accept four arguments: NAME, TYPE, CLASS, KEYWORD.
+The Help buffer is current when this function is called, and the help
+text should be loaded into this buffer.  If help is found, the
+function should return the buffer position which should be used as
+`window-start' in the help window.  Also, the variable
+`idlwave-help-mode-line-indicator' should be set to a useful string,
+which will be displayed in the mode line of the help window.  If
+should also set the variable `idlwave-help-min-frame-width' to a
+positive integer.  IDLWAVE will ensure that the help frame is at least
+that many columns wide.  Failure to find help should be indicated by
+throwing an error.
+
+When this variable is non-nil, IDLWAVE will allow the mouse-3 help click
+for every routine and keyword, even though the item may not be highlighted
+in blue (indicating the availability of system documentation).
+
+The default value for this function is `idlwave-help-with-source' which
+loads the routine source file into the help buffer.  If you try to write
+a different function which accesses a special help file or so, it is
+probably a good idea to still call this function as a fallback."
