How About a PyDoc Option on the Consoles Tab?

It would be interesting, and useful, to have an option to generate a PyDoc web index. Especially if it would include your own modules.

It could be a useful educational tool for code teachers also.

We could think of doing something like that but, to be honest, it's not going to be high on our priority list, because you can just use pydoc to generate the documentation anyway.

Yes, you may use pydoc in a bash console for individual items. Even in the interpreter. But how about putting out an HTML index page with the -b flag?

And try running pydoc searching modules, ie. 'pydoc modules'. There goes most of your cpu time. lol

Yeah. I would think that scanning all of our installed modules is going to take a little cpu.

A prescanned and available index page would be nice. Maybe a Python documentation and tutorial section.
