From 416b961be8e04df70d909b85349b8f01cea7464f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Guido van Rossum <guido@python.org>
Date: Thu, 26 Aug 1999 23:06:05 +0000
Subject: Find the help.txt file relative to __file__ or ".", not in sys.path.
 (Suggested by Moshe Zadka, but implemented differently.)

Add <<python-docs>> event which, on Unix, brings up Netscape pointing
to http://www.python.doc/current/ (a local copy would be nice but its
location can't be predicted).  Windows solution TBD.
