</div>The python documentation (at least in its recent versions, f.e. from<br>
2.6 onwards) it's generated from ReST files, that are later converted<br>
to several output formats (HTML, PDF, TXT, and so on) by a wonderful<br>
tool: sphinx.<br>
<br>
So you can definetely use the ReST format: you can clone the CPython<br>
mercurial repository and start playing with those files; you can refer<br>
to:<br>

for additional details, and in case of doubts, don't hesitate to ask<br>
again on this list.<br>
