Good. What platform did you try it on?
I have updated the scripts now to provide a very rudimentary HTTP server
feature:
skuld[1316]% pydoc -p 8080
starting server on port 8080
This starts a server on port 8080 that generates HTML documentation for
modules on the fly. The root page (http://localhost:8080/) shows an
index of modules -- it badly needs some cleaning up, but at least it
provides access to all the documentation.
http://www.lfw.org/python/pydoc.py
http://www.lfw.org/python/htmldoc.py
Also, as you requested:
skuld[1324]% pydoc -h
/home/ping/bin/pydoc <name> ...
Show documentation on something.
<name> may be the name of a Python function, module,
package, or a dotted reference to a class or function
within a module or module in a package.
/home/ping/bin/pydoc -k <keyword>
Search for a keyword in the short descriptions of modules.
/home/ping/bin/pydoc -p <port>
Start an HTTP server on the given port on the local machine.
More to come.
