onlinehelp.py is checked in. Here's the docstring: This module is experimental and could be removed or radically changed at any time. It is intended specifically for the standard interpreter command line but is intended to be compatible with and useful for other (e.g. GUI, handheld) environments. Help with those other environments is appreciated. Please remember to set PYTHONDOCS to the location of your HTML files: e.g. set PYTHONDOCS=c:\python\docs PYTHONDOCS=/python/docs The docs directory should have a lib subdirectory with "index.html" in it. If it has *.tex then you have the documentation *source* distribution, not the runtime distribution. The module exposes one object: "help". "help" has a repr that does something useful if you just type: >>> from onlinehelp import help >>> help Of course one day the first line will be done automatically by site.py or something like that. help can be used as a function. The function takes the following forms of input: help( "string" ) -- built-in topic or global help( <ob> ) -- docstring from object or type help( "doc:filename" ) -- filename from Python documentation Type help to get the rest of the instructions. You can also use the module as a command line program: python onlinehelp.py "if" -- Paul Prescod - Not encumbered by corporate consensus It's difficult to extract sense from strings, but they're the only communication coin we can count on. - http://www.cs.yale.edu/~perlis-alan/quotes.html
