The PDDP standard for this is to have every object have its own help
file, then have a shared "all_about" patch for the common parts. You
can link to that other patch using pddp/open or pddp/pddplink.
Each object's help patch should have an example that is specific to
that object. If there aren't different examples, then I don't see
the point of having different objects...

I have several abstractions for which there should logically be one
common helpfile explaining them all at once. How do I specify the
name of the helpfile I want to have opened?
I want to do like class_sethelpsymbol() but for abstractions
instead of externals.
(Have I asked that question before? I don't remember)
