10the name of a function, module, package, or a dotted reference to a
11class or function within a module or module in a package. If the
12argument contains a path segment delimiter (e.g. slash on Unix,
13backslash on Windows) it is treated as the path to a Python source file.

Nick Coghlan7bb30b72010-12-03 09:29:11 +000018Run "pydoc -p <port>" to start an HTTP server on the given port on the
19local machine. Port number 0 can be used to get an arbitrary unused port.
20
21Run "pydoc -b" to start an HTTP server on an arbitrary unused port and
22open a Web browser to interactively browse documentation. The -p option
23can be used with the -b option to explicitly specify the server port.

Ka-Ping Yee37f7b382001-03-23 00:12:53 +000025Run "pydoc -w <name>" to write out the HTML documentation for a module
26to a file named "<name>.html".
