pydoc with pydoc with -w option (to write html files) does not work for a lot of help topics (e.g. EXPRESSIONS, FORMATTING, TUPLELITERALS, def, if, else...) If you look at the source you can see that when using the switch '-w' (http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/2.7/Lib/pydoc.py#l2311) pydoc uses the function writedoc, otherwise to the class Helper (http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/2.7/Lib/pydoc.py#l2325). In the Helper-class EXPRESSIONS is defined under line 1666 (http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/2.7/Lib/pydoc.py#l1666). The function writedoc does not utilize this nor does it use the Helper class. For dicussion see: http://stackoverflow.com/a/10333615/1318686 Example: pydoc EXPRESSIONS works perfectly fine but pydoc -w EXPRESSIONS does not. |

Thanks for the report. Are you interested in making a patch? Also, could you tell if the bug happens in 3.2? |
