Summary: Command line interface to timeit.py

Initial Comment:

In the documentation for timeit.py

  http://docs.python.org/lib/node808.html

it says

  25.9.1 Command Line Interface

  When called as a program from the command line, the following form is used:

  python timeit.py [-n N] [-r N] [-s S] [-t] [-c] [-h] [statement ...]

In fact, for this to work we have to put in the full path to timeit.py. 
Wouldn't it be better to ask Python to search for it with the -m flag? That is, 
shouldn't that line be

  python -m timeit [-n N] [-r N] [-s S] [-t] [-c] [-h] [statement ...]

instead?
