Regarding the Anjuta 'Help' - think you might be interested in this
package (I don't use Anjuta, but a bit of apt-cache searching shows the
following:

apt-cache search anjuta help
devhelp - A GNOME developers help program
devhelp-common - common files for devhelp and its library
libdevhelp-1-0 - Library providing documentation browser functionality
libdevhelp-1-dev - Library providing documentation browser functionality
(development)

apt-cache depends devhelp shows that it pulls in at least one of the other
packages from that search:

 Depends: libdevhelp-1-0

apt-cache show devhelp-common suggests that it supplies mainly
internationalisation.

 apt-cache show devhelp | grep -A 10 Description

Description: A GNOME developers help program
 Devhelp's primary goal is to be an API documentation browser for GNOME.
 It is able to scan for .devhelp files generated automatically for
 packages that use gtk-doc-tools to generate documentation for libraries
 and programs.
 .
 Devhelp uses Gecko, the Mozilla rendering engine to render the HTML
 manuals. It also provides Bonobo functionality, which is used to
 allow command-line searches, emacs integration and embedding in
 applications like the Anjuta IDE.

As you see, you can search either with the GUI or with the command line :)
The command line is quicker... but of course there's a set of commands to
learn.
