F2 is the magic key. You don't have to select the symbol. Just put the cursor 
in the symbol, and F2 will open the help page on it, or bring you to the 
definition of the symbol if it is defined in the project. In the last case, 
SHIFT-F2 will bring you back to the initial cursor position.

I know, this is not documented... Maybe I should add an entry in the editor 
menu.
