You can also point it to a local directory, a zip archive of the help
files (which should contain the htmlhelp project files - try 'make
htmlhelp' in the PostgreSQL doc source tree), or a compiled htmlhelp
file on Windows.

The other bonus is that you can of course use whatever version of the
documentation you like this way. The same applies to the Slony and
EnterpriseDB documentation.
