It took quite a while, but I eventually found it. Having the
documentation split up into dozens and dozens of small pages
sure makes it hard to find things. I don't really understand
what the advantage for splitting up documentation into
screen-sized chunks is supposed to be -- all the web browsers
I've ever seen can scroll. One page per module or chapter
sure would make it easier to search...

That's what I ended up doing. Fortunately os.walk() makes it
fairly easy. :)
