[Pythonmac-SIG] fragment in pyhton ref doc's

[Tom Fetherston]

Hi,

Not exactly an html list, but believe it or not this involves Python.  I
cam accross a program that would provide keyword look-ups into the Python
Html doc.  It came in too parts, a python program to parse the url's in the
genindex.html file (in the ref sub directory), it created a dictionary
(keyword : url), then it pickled that dictionary.

I updated it to use the 're' module and to handle the 2.0 doc's, instead of
pickling the dictionary, I have it write out a .tcl file, which when
sourced, provide a Tcl equivalent of the dictionary.  The second part of
this system was a elisp function to initiated a lookup from within emacs.

Noe, I changed this so command-double clicking a keyword in Alpha sends an
AppleEvent to a browser containg the Url.  Most of the urls contain
fragments (e.g. #12h-110) after the filename that are supposed to position
the relevant section in the browser for viewing, however, only Netscape
seems to accept this correctly.  ICab and IE just open the file at the top.
This is also what they do if you click the hyperlink in the index file.

!) Am I stuck with specifying Netscape as the only browser to use?

2) What is this fragment specifying?  My Html 4 ref book does not list this
kind of fragment, is it purely a Netscape extension?
