Hi Bert,
Is your question more like how to get the help webapp started from an
Eclipse-based application without starting a new instance of Eclipse?
I recommend that you re-post your question to the eclipse.platform.ua
newsgroup. The Eclipse UA committers monitor that group and will more
likely see a posting there.
Hope this helps,
Lee Anne
