While editing a .php file, you may need to view the php manual to see the parameters for a function.

You might open a browser and visit http://ro.php.net/FUNCTION_NAME (for example http://ro.php.net/printf).

However, you can use:

set keywordprg=a_script

Then, by default, when the cursor is on a WORD and you press K in normal mode, Vim will run man WORD. If you set keywordprg=a_script, Vim will run 'a_script WORD'.

So I have

set keywordprg=/home/marcel/php_doc

and php_doc looks like:

#!/usr/bin/bash
links http://www.php.net/$1

And now I have online help.

links is a text browser for Unix. Of course you can use lynx instead.
