I just read the first few pages of the script for Monty Python's Meaning of Life, which figures a "machine that goes 'Ping'".

You can check these into the regular tree. I guess they both go into the Lib directory, right? Make sure pydoc.py is checked in with +x permissions. I'll see if we can import pydoc.help into __builtin__ in interactive mode. Now let's paaaartaaaay! --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
