I am planning to incorporate Paul Prescod's mechanismfor doing this; i just didn't have time to throw in that featureyet, and wanted feedback on the man-like stuff first.My next two targets are:    1.  Generating text from the HTML documentation files        using Paul Prescod's stuff in onlinehelp.py.    2.  Running a background HTTP server that produces its        pages using htmldoc.py.Both are pieces we already have and only need to integrate; i justwanted to get at least a working candidate done first.Did using pydoc like "man" work okay for you?> >>> import string> >>> help(string)> Traceback (most recent call last):...> TypeError: arg is a built-in classMine doesn't do this for me.
