The sqlplus HELP facility has never come pre-installed that I know of
as I have had to manually install it. Oracle provides a script in the
$ORACLE_HOME/bin directory, inshelp, that will run the install. Or you
can go to $ORACLE_HOME/sqlplus/admin/help. The bin script requires you
set a couple of environment variable before running it; they are easy
to spot if you look at it.
