From: Peng Yu on 24 May 2010 18:52 I mainly check online python manual. But I feel that it would be nice if there is command line manual available (just like perl command line manual). Could you please let me know if such command line manual available? -- Regards, Peng

You could instead use a text-based console web browser such as lynx to view the online docs to much the same effect though. Cheers, Chris

From the shell, you can call: python --help If you are using Linux, your distro probably has also installed the Python man pages, which you access with either of: man python info python And from inside the Python interactive interpreter, you can call help(obj) to get help on any object, or just help() to enter an interactive help session. -- Steven

This is gives you the same output as you get running help(<module>) in the python shell.
