This script/module looks up keywords in the Python manuals. It is usable as CGI script - a version is online at http://starship.python.net/crew/theller/cgi- bin/pyhelp.cgi It can also by used from the command line: python pyhelp.py keyword It can also be used to implement context sensitive help in IDLE or Xemacs (for example) by simply selecting a word and pressing F1. It can use the online version of the manuals at <www.python.org/doc/>, or it can use local installed html pages. The script/module scans the index pages of the docs for hyperlinks, and pickles the results to disk.
