Clone vimman from github.

$ git clone https://github.com/yonchu/vimman.git

Source vimman/vimman.zsh in your .zshrc and restart zsh.

source /path/to/vimman/vimman.zsh

Usage:

  $ vimman [-e] <help-file>

Options:
  -e : Edit the vim plugin help (not use :help command)

If you want to use the cache, set the followings in your .zshrc:

zstyle ':completion:*' use-cache yes

Custom plugin directories (besides default ~/.vim/doc):

zstyle ':vimman:' dir ~/.vim/bundle ~/hoge

Display verbose (print the path to the help file):

zstyle ':vimman:' verbose yes

Cache expiration days (default: 1):

zstyle ':vimman:' expire 7

Note that if you change the zstyle settings, you should delete the cache file and restart zsh.

$ rm ~/.zcompcache/vimman
$ exec zsh
