Setup & Usage documentation for pydoc, IDLE, & 2to3 #59149
Comments
pydoc is installed as a script by Python. It should be documented under http://docs.python.org/dev/using/index.html. |
Same goes for idle and 2to3. These may just be cross-references to the relevant module documentation rather than completely new text. |
I second the motion for IDLE. There is no module doc for it. Off the top of my head, there should be a general section that
Then for each system,
Windows: (what I use) *nix: mac: (ned daily) |
http://docs.python.org/py3k/library/idle.html (duplicates much of the IDLE help file) |
Hmm, how did I miss that?? Well better to reference that, and maybe revise it. I believe there may also be another .txt document in idlelib. Anyway, perhaps there should first be a section on tkinter by itself, and how to get the tcl/tk it depends on. Mention that optional part of Windows install, so tkinter will likely not work if unselected from installer. |
I'm assuming that this still applies to 3.4 and 2.7. |
I am not sure where installed scripts are documented in Using Python. 'idle' and 'idle3' are not installed on Windows. |
idle.html, derived from idle.rst, is now the IDLE help file. pip also has pip3 command; perhaps ensurepip should be mentioned. |
2to3 is deprecated in 3.11 and removed in 3.13: |
