I would do

Help on help()

[dbr517]

Is there any technique for preventing help from recursing into the
module tree??

If I do:

import my_module
help(my_module)

I'd like to see ONLY help on my_module, NOT help on all the functions
inherited from the various parent classes . . .

A quick search of the documentation didn't turn up anything . . . .

TIA .. .

Dan
