You can run pydoc as a server and hit it with your browser:
"""
Run "pydoc -p <port>" to start an HTTP server on a given port on the
local machine to generate documentation web pages.
"""
However, I'm having trouble getting this to work in Python 2.4 on WinXP, per
the traceback below:
D:\Python24\Lib>python pydoc.py -p 7887
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "pydoc.py", line 55, in ?
import sys, imp, os, re, types, inspect, __builtin__
File "D:\Python24\Lib\re.py", line 5, in ?
from sre import *
File "D:\Python24\Lib\sre.py", line 97, in ?
import sre_compile
File "D:\Python24\Lib\sre_compile.py", line 17, in ?
assert _sre.MAGIC == MAGIC, "SRE module mismatch"
AssertionError: SRE module mismatch
On the other hand, when I change to Python 2.3 and try the same thing, it
works:
D:\Python24\Lib>cd..
D:\Python24>cd ..
D:\>cd python23
D:\Python23>cd lib
D:\Python23\Lib>python pydoc.py -p 7887
pydoc server ready at http://localhost:7887/
Anyone able to get the 2.4 pydoc server working in Windows?
