oh, I didn't proclaim anything. Python 2.4 did. let's see what
Python 2.2 has to say about this:
$ python2.2
Python 2.2.1 (#2, Jul 17 2002, 13:11:01)
[GCC 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-98)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import pydoc
>>> help is pydoc.help
0
I do, however, find it a bit funny when someone reads
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
as
Type "help(help)" /.../
and then starts ranting about how "help(help)" isn't quite as helpful
as "help" (or "help()", for that matter -- which is what a plain "help"
tells you to use).
it's a little like the people who type "google" into the google search
field, and then complain that the "I feel lucky" button doesn't seem
to work.
