New submission from Ben Finney: The library documentation for ‘pydoc’ expects that the ‘pydoc’ module will only ever be run as a command-line program. This ignores the general usefulness of several of the functions in that module when imported from the library.
The documentation should describe at least the following functions: * pydoc.getdoc * pydoc.synopsis * pydoc.splitdoc The following would be useful also: * pydoc.classname * pydoc.cram * pydoc.allmethods ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 197138 nosy: bignose, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Document useful functions in ‘pydoc’ module type: enhancement versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2, Python 3.3, Python 3.4, Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18956> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
