Ok, well, here's my attempt to begin to make that happen: http://www.simisen.com/jmg/cpd/ This "release" is as alpha as alpha gets. It's so alpha it actually loops back around to zeta -- but it's a start, and I think it's exactly what the Python community needs. The command to read the docs works like pydoc but is called dennis (extra points for getting the obscure Monty Python reference before reading the web page). :) The dennis command is only a few lines of Python held together by bailing wire, so it will need lots of work, but it lets us read the docs so it's ok for now. You're invited to fix it up and send me an improved version. :) Please have a look and let me know what you think. If people start writing modules (that is, documentation) and sending them to me, I'll probably be forced to start a mailing list and actually put this stuff in CVS/SVN/bzr. Have at it! :) ---John -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
