### Synopsis

```bash

### Description

If supplied a topic, then show the appropriate documentation page.

If the topic does not exist, or if multiple terms are provided, then run
the `help-search` command to find a match.  Note that, if `help-search`
finds a single subject, then it will run `help` on that topic, so unique
matches are equivalent to specifying a topic name.

### Configuration

#### viewer

* Default: "man" on Posix, "browser" on Windows
* Type: path

The program to use to view help content.

Set to `"browser"` to view html help content in the default web browser.
