There are others far more qualified than I to give a definitive
answer, but I'd bet there's not a practical way to do that.  Is
there some reason you can't just ftp yourself a copy to the PC's
hard drive?  If so (short of disk space, not authorized, ???),
have you got access to some web space on the system, where you
could stash the files and use an http:// - style entry?

How'd it happen that the installation didn't include a local copy
of the help, &/or why use the /usr/local/lib copy?
