Hi Mike,

that is the easier part. You can integrate your existing HTML documentation
using the org.eclipse.help.toc extension point. In the online help see
Platform Plug-in Developer Guide --> Programmer's Guide --> User assistance
support --> Help for more details.
> man pages (OS X or other Unix)
There is a not-so-well-documented extension point,
org.eclipse.cdt.ui.CHelpProvider which lets you add support for context
sensitive help, tooltips and content assist for any background source you
care, as long as you succeed accessing it from Java code and format it into
the classes required by the interface.
From time to time I thought a man page help provider would be pretty cool
and generic so it could even be contributed to the CDT itself, but I never
got around to really work on it.
If you need more info on this then come back and ask more details, but
you'll end up writing your own plug-in if you go that way.
Greetings,
Norbert
