It would be great if the docstring contained a link to the online
documentation.
That would have to be a feature of help(), not hardcoded in each docstring.
That *is* a feature of the help function:
Help on built-in module sys:
help(sys)
NAME
sys
FILE
(built-in)
MODULE DOCS
http://docs.python.org/library/sys
On 3.3.2 and 3.4.0:
Help on built-in module sys:
NAME
sys
MODULE REFERENCE
http://docs.python.org/3.3/library/sys
...
FILE
(built-in)
On Windows, one will not see the top of the help(sys) output unless one
either uses Idle or increases the number of lines in the console window
from 300.
