Hi all, I'm a week or so into having switched from WinXP to linux (ubuntu breezy). There is a lot to learn about the differences in the OS'es and that's just fine.
But, a couple of things have been in my way with Python. Most notably, I don't know how one browses the documentation. On Windows, I just fired up the .chm (I think cmh--at any rate, the compiled help file.) I have installed the docs on the linux side and they can be found by python: >>> help() <snip welcome msg> help> NONE ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2.3.10.7 The Null Object This object is returned by functions that don't explicitly return a <truncate output> I assume there is some linux facility for documentation browsing that beats importing modules and accessing docstrings. I'd work it out eventually, but a timesaving pointer would be appreciated. Best to all, Brian vdB _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
