+<p>
+<var>BaseURL</var> is a String property which contains the protocol and path 
+used to access the HTML help files stored in the help database. The property 
+value starts with a URL protocol like:
+</p>
+<dl>
+<dt>'file://'</dt>
+<dd>Accesses a path on the local file system.</dd>
+<dt>'http://', https://'</dt>
+<dd>Accesses a location on a web server.</dd>
+</dl>
+<p>
+The property value must also include path information to the directory or 
+location where the help files are stored. For 'file://' access, the path can be 
+relative to application directory. For remote access, relative paths are not 
+resolvable. An absolute path for the host platform can also be used.
+</p>
+<p>
+For example:
+</p>
+<dl>
+<dt>'file://html/', 'file://../myapp/html/'</dt>
+<dd>
+Path on the local file system relative to the application directory.
+</dd>
+<dt>'file:///usr/share/myapp/html/'</dt>
+<dd>
+Absolute path to a directory on a UNIX-like file system. Not supported on 
+Windows; it is relative to the current drive.
+</dd>
+<dt>'file://c:/myapp/html/', 'file://c:\myapp\html\'</dt>
+<dd>
+Absolute path to a directory on the Windows platform. Not supported on 
+UNIX-like file systems; they do no support disk drive specifiers.
+</dd>
+<dt>'http://www.acme.org/myapp/html/', 'https://www.acme.org/myapp/html/'</dt>
+<dd>
+Absolute path to a location on a remote web server.
+</dd>
+</dl>
+<p>
+BaseURL is used in the GetEffectiveBaseURL and ShowURL methods when a request 
+URL is expanded / resolved to the storage location for the help database.
+</p>

+Use DefaultBaseURL to set the URL used when BaseURL is not resolvable or 
+omitted. Use BuiltInBaseURL to access a value assigned in the Lazarus IDE Help 
+options.
