Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Python Library Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Bryan G. Olson (bryango) >Assigned to: Ka-Ping Yee (ping) Summary: help(<keyword>) broken, especially on Windows Initial Comment: The for loop that pydoc.Helper's __init__ uses to find the location of Python docs doesn't work. It will reject the standard setting of 'http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/'. Also, the loop should probably break after setting self.docdir. On Windows, setting PYTHONDOCS to the installation's doc directory will not make it work, because the doc is now distributed as a single file, 'Python24.chm', so there is no 'lib' sub-directory. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1278102&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
