Yes, the help URL is specified in the pi.properties file and passed to the default browser.

This should work since uima-tools.jar (there's no more pear-tools.jar) should be on the classpath in order to run the PEAR installer. -Adam
We just need to modify the InstallPear class main() method code to check if the CVD class, specified in the gladis.properties file, is on the classpath. We also may need to clean-up the pi.properties file. Another problem is that InstallPear code requires uima.home JVM system property. I'm not sure what can we do in the case when this property is not set. -- Lev
