There's devhelp, qthelp, and also CHM viewers for Linux. Numpy docs can be built for all of them [1], provided a new enough version of Sphinx. No need to invent a new wheel, methinks. Moreover, there is already a listing of functions by feature in the refguide... ..

Hi, Wayne. They're not nearly as structured, but for the time being (indefinitely? unless a volunteer steps forward to build something for us more closely resembling the GMI), you could use the numpy and scipy doc Wiki Milestones pages: http://docs.scipy.org/numpy/Milestones/ http://docs.scipy.org/scipy/Milestones/ in this fashion.
