I'm new in Mathematica, and would like to know how can I open multiple help windows at the same time. It's this possible? I'm using Mac OS.

I know it works for link in the help page with right mouse click, but not for drill down in another function (that is not a link).

You can do Help-> Documentation Center as many times as you wish. – b.gatessucks Dec 23 '12 at 17:24

Shift + F1 instead of F1 – Rojo Dec 23 '12 at 17:31
you can right click on hyperlinks in the help system and select "open in new window" – acl Dec 23 '12 at 17:33
@Rojo tks, it's exactly this, but unfortunately Shift + F1 works just for Windows, not for Mac. – DMurta Dec 23 '12 at 18:04
Find KeyEventTranslations.tr and look for a line like this ` Item[KeyEvent["F1", Modifiers->{Shift}], SelectionHelpDialog[False]],`. If nothing similar is there, try adding it – Rojo Dec 23 '12 at 18:08
