The question is, which behaviour do you want ?

simply do:

set kp=man

or 

set kp=somethingelse\ with\ spaces

to make vim invoke another program that is capable of providing help.
The text under the cursor is added as the first parameter to the
command. If you press a number key before K the number is also added
as an parameter.

Or do you mean how to get the split-screen that shows up when vim
shows it's own help?

For this I have no idea.

Michael
