If you have Kylix around, you can integrate language reference help
with Lazarus IDE. If not, then you need to download the prog.pdf,
ref.pdf files from the Free Pascal website and manually search for
syntax help.

I know this sucks. PDF's are great if you plan to print the documents,
but they are definitely not the ideal help format for context
sensitive application help.

PS:
I'm busy working on a help system and new help viewer application for
fpGUI Toolkit. I'm planning on implementing the FPC ref and prog
documentation in the new help format. This should also allow the new
help viewer to be integrated with Lazarus IDE, even though it's not a
LCL based application. Supported platforms will be whatever fpGUI
supports: currently Linux, Windows and *BSD. I'll keep you guys
updated.
