Alexander Belopolsky <belopol...@users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

+:program:`pydoc` :option:`-g` will start the server and additionally open a web
+browser to a module index page.  Each served page has a navagation bar at the
+top where you can 'get' help on a individual item, 'find' all modules with a
+keyword in thier synopsis line, and goto indexes for 'modules', 'topics' and
+'keywords'.

I am not sure I like the fact that the browser is started automatically.   
Please bring this up on python-dev.  This may be an opportunity to rethink 
pydoc command line switches.  For example, -p and -g are currently exclusive, 
but it would make sense for -g to start server on the port specified by -p.
