Hi finkers, This is really lame, but I am always writing these little scripts to make it easy to do common things (Unix tradition). I wanted to share this one that I use to start a python coding session. It launches the idle environment, launches a pydoc Web server process at port 8090, and launches the dillo web browser to display your documentation. If you have fink, python2.3, pydoc2.3, and dillo it will just work. I call it pywork, and launch it with "sh ~/./pywork". It's small:
/sw/bin/pydoc2.3 -p 8090 & dillo http://localhost:8090 & /sw/bin/python2.3 /sw/bin/idle2.3 & You might want to add a dillo window to point to the html documentation if you have it, too. I'm downloading it now, it will probably launch with a: /sw/bin/pydoc2.3 -p 8090 & dillo http://localhost:8090 & dillo http://sw/share/doc/python23/Doc/html/index.html & /sw/bin/python2.3 /sw/bin/idle2.3 & That is, if you install it in the default location. Theoretically if you install latex2html you should be able to build the html documentation locally. Does anybody know if that works? I'm on dialup and don't feel like pulling down latex2html right now...
