Personally I seldom/never do that. My normal workflow is use ipython, obj? or obj?? for quick look up or use docs.python.org for a detailed read. Do you use `help`? How does it integrate into your workflow? Or instead, what similar tools do you use? Regards. shiyao -- 吾輩は猫である。ホームーページはhttp://introo.me。
