3 """Generate Python documentation in HTML or text for interactive use.
5 In the Python interpreter, do "from pydoc import help" to provide online
6 help. Calling help(thing) on a Python object documents the object.
8 Or, at the shell command line outside of Python:
10 Run "pydoc <name>" to show documentation on something. <name> may be
11 the name of a function, module, package, or a dotted reference to a
12 class or function within a module or module in a package. If the
13 argument contains a path segment delimiter (e.g. slash on Unix,
14 backslash on Windows) it is treated as the path to a Python source file.
16 Run "pydoc -k <keyword>" to search for a keyword in the synopsis lines
17 of all available modules.
19 Run "pydoc -p <port>" to start an HTTP server on a given port on the
20 local machine to generate documentation web pages.
22 For platforms without a command line, "pydoc -g" starts the HTTP server
23 and also pops up a little window for controlling it.
25 Run "pydoc -w <name>" to write out the HTML documentation for a module
26 to a file named "<name>.html".
28 Module docs for core modules are assumed to be in
30 http://docs.python.org/library/
32 This can be overridden by setting the PYTHONDOCS environment variable
33 to a different URL or to a local directory containing the Library
34 Reference Manual pages.
