Of course, silly me. Sorry.

I would prefer to remove the pydoc script altogether. The other alternative 
would be to rename it to pydoc-script.py and have a pydoc.exe adjacent to it 
(this is how scripts installed with setuptools or distlib work). However, the 
simple launcher which would be pydoc.exe is not currently part of Python. I 
think the best thing would be for me to post on python-dev to see what views 
people there have about these alternatives.
