When you try to make a doc from your programm woth pydoc, it doesnt show
the the identifiers in the modules section. when i put 'from module
import identifier' in my code

Can you expand a bit? What exactly do you expect in the generated
documentation that is not there?

I think he means that if you use "from m import x" to import part of
module interface, "x" is not shown in the generated doc.

I feel like that's the correct behavior, since x should be documented in
m. In a module you can override this by doing '__all__ = ['x']', but I'm
not sure there's a way in a script.

I agree.
