I unpacked to the top level directory before, so changes went to lisp.
However, the previous installation of ess was in site-lisp, which I
assume has precedence. I unpacked the new lisp directory over the old
one and tried again. Results were the same.
The variable setting is
inferior-ess-help-command is a variable defined in `ess-cust.el'.
Its value is "help(\"%s\", htmlhelp=FALSE)\n"
?foo opens an emacs buffer on foo's help.
ESS's opening message and ess-version variable both say 5.5.
