It would be nice if the universal installer for 2.4.2 also installed the 2.4.2 version of the python documentation in Mac Help format. I have the framework python 2.4.2 but the mac help docs are still 2.4.1. Somewhere sometime ago there was an installer for the reference docs in mac help format. I haven't seen anything for 2.4.2
