This is a JavaScript based search, which will only be (optionally) integrated in the offline version. The online version will get a more sophisticated search. We've just finished to implement the quick dispatcher in the repository. A request to http://docs.python.org/os.path would then redirect to the appropriate module page, as well as http://docs.python.org/?q=os.path Something like http://docs.python.org/?q=os.paht (note the misspelling) would lead to a page with close matching results, os.path being the first of them. (The web app is based on wsgiref, with a few wrappers around it...) cheers, Georg _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
