This archive will expand into a helpbutton directory.
The source code is an example of doing context sensitive help using
your own help button.  It also shows how to pop up and destroy
a balloon entirely from code.

The base window contains a help button (a big PtButton widget containing
a big question mark.)  If the user clicks on this help button then the
mouse pointer changes to a question mark.  The user can then click on
either of the other two widgets in the window.  When they do, the
appropriate balloon for that widget is displayed.  One important
feature of this method of bringing up the balloon is that you
have full control over the balloon's colors, font, and to a limited
extent, its position.
