Launching HelpViewer

I searched Archives of this list to find information on setting up help,
but I can not get it to work as explained in previous messages:

1. First I set NSHelpFile in my plist and it works, but help always
launches in a browser instead of HelpViewer. I am wondering how to set
which system gets used.

2. I then tried CFBundleHelpBookFolder and CFBundleHelpBookName in the
plist, but now the help command just says help is not available. I am
sure I set up the correct names including meta tag in the help file, but
I can not get it to launch. The Apple documentation says "Cocoa
applications benefit from automatic help menu handling when they
register through a property list", but for some reason not in my
application?
