If name is 'keywords', 'topics', or 'modules', a listing of these things is displayed. pydoc3 -k <keyword> Search for a keyword in the synopsis lines of all available modules. pydoc3 -p <port> Start an HTTP server on the given port on the local machine. Port number 0 can be used to get an arbitrary unused port. pydoc3 -b Start an HTTP server on an arbitrary unused port and open a Web browser to interactively browse documentation. The -p option can be used with the -b option to explicitly specify the server port. pydoc3 -w <name> ... Write out the HTML documentation for a module to a file in the current directory.
