Category: Python Library Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Chris Withers (fresh) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: No examples or usage docs for urllib2 Initial Comment: Hi there, I'm sure I reported this before, but it's a couple of major releases later, and there's still no usage docs for urllib2. The examples given are too trivial to be helpful, but I'm guessing people are using the module so there must be some examples out there somewhere ;-) With a bit o fhelp from Moshez, I found the docstring in the module source. At the very least, it'd be handy if that appeared somewhere at: http://docs.python.org/lib/module-urllib2.html But really, mroe extensive and helpful documentation on this cool new module would be very handy.

As I said in the original submission, including the module's docstring in the Python module documentation would be a start, but doesn't cover what appears to be the full potential of a great module... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Martin v.
