<p>These archives contain all the content in the documentation.</p>

<p>HTML Help (<tt>.chm</tt>) files are made available in the "Windows" section
on the <a href="http://python.org/download/releases/{{ release[:5] }}/">Python
download page</a>.</p>


<h2>Unpacking</h2>

<p>Unix users should download the .tar.bz2 archives; these are bzipped tar
archives and can be handled in the usual way using tar and the bzip2
program. The <a href="http://www.info-zip.org">InfoZIP</a> unzip program can be
used to handle the ZIP archives if desired. The .tar.bz2 archives provide the
best compression and fastest download times.</p>

<p>Windows users can use the ZIP archives since those are customary on that
platform. These are created on Unix using the InfoZIP zip program.</p>


<h2>Problems</h2>

<p>If you have comments or suggestions for the Python documentation, please send
email to <a href="mailto:docs@python.org">docs@python.org</a>.</p>
