```
# install iex_help_open
$ mix archive.install https://github.com/wojtekmach/iex_help_open/releases/download/v0.1.0/iex_help_open-0.1.0.ez

# use it in a mix project
$ iex -S mix
iex> import_if_available IExHelpOpen # or add this line to .iex.exs

iex> ho inspect
# opens https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/Kernel.html#inspect/2

iex> ho Ecto.Changeset.cast/3
