19 Nov '10

Éric Araujo <merwok(a)netwok.org> added the comment: Who wants to make a patch to update the documentation? For command-line examples (like “python setup.py install --install-base /tmp”), someone has to research what standard variable to use (TMPDIR, TMP, something else?). ---------- keywords: +easy stage: -> needs patch title: Modules have dangerous examples in documentation -> Use tempfile instead of /tmp in examples versions: -Python 2.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8890> _______________________________________

[issue10457] "Related help topics" shown outside pager
by Cherniavsky Beni 19 Nov '10

19 Nov '10

New submission from Cherniavsky Beni <cben(a)users.sf.net>: help('NAMESPACES') or any other long help is shows in a pager. That's great. It's a bit surprising however that the text shown in the pager doesn't include the "Related help topics: ..." line, which is shown when you leave the pager. There is practical benefit to see the related topics after you exited the pager - that's when you have the chance to follow these other topics. But I think it should be duplicated inside the pager as well. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation, Library (Lib) messages: 121514 nosy: cben, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: "Related help topics" shown outside pager type: behavior versions: Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10457> _______________________________________
