There are numerous ways in which a system-wide help system can be implemented. I just published a post about Matlab's internal support for such a system, which is one of the lesser-known semi-documented Matlab features: http://undocumentedmatlab.com/blog/context-sensitive-help/ .

But note again - this is just one of many alternatives for solving this issue.
