What is ‘emacs-superthesaurus’?  Is it a package of Emacs
Lisp?  If so, then typing C-h P emacs-superthesaurus RET
ought to give you a description of the elisp package.  It
might also include an Info file(s) that documents use of the
package.  If not, then you will need to find where the
documentation is.  For example, it might have manual pages
that you can read with:

   M-x man

or 

   M-x woman

In case you are unaware, Emacs includes an Emacs Lisp
package named ‘dictionary’, which includes a description
that you can read by typing:

   C-h P dictionary RET

Many words have a corresponding thesaurus entry.  For
example, 

   M-x dictionary-search editor RET

includes the following thesaurus entry for the word
‘editor’:
