When i'm taking a look at the include file khelpmenu.h on my system then
i'll see that the method help of KPopupMenu is commented out as old style (like
the book i'm learining with ;-). There seems to be no method that does the
thing i want. What suprises me is that the method is still mentioned at the API
reference
http://developer.kde.org/documentation/library/3.0-api/classref/kdeui/KHelpMenu.html#longdesc

If the method no longer exists, when the API Refernce should be updated. For
a beginner like me the API Reference and the include files are essential.
I'm a bit frustrated that i'll can't get this help menu work and i would be
even more happy if it were a bug in my system setup.

I'll have XML UI also on my plan, but not at this eraly learning stage. 

Thanks for your help
Oliver
