Paul's onlinehelp.py is using the HTMLParser and AbstractFormatter
to turn HTML into text.  It also contains paths to specific files,
e.g. help('assert') looks for "ref/assert.html".  Are you okay with
this technique?  Have you tried onlinehelp.py?  I was planning to
do the same to provide help on the language in pydoc.
