help(module_name) will place any text in the *first* module-level docstring into the description section of the help page in Python 3.4.5. Subsequent docstrings found at module level are ignored.
I have been using this factoid for placement of a copyright & licensing notice. By placing a rather lengthy copyright & license in the code in a the second module-level docstring, it is prominent within the code, but not cluttering up help() output. Two questions. Is there a more standardized way of including long license descriptions in code, & is it documented that any other module-level docstring will be ignored in help() output? Thanks!
