<Author> Taesoo Kim (taesoo@mit.edu) Michael Markert (markert.michael@gmail.com) <README> Pylookup stole idea from 'http://furius.ca/haddoc', one of my favorite emacs mode for python documentation lookup. I reimplemented python code and elisp code not just to support new version of python 2.7 but also to extend it for other documentation lookup interfaces with easy. Importantly, pylookup mode is much faster and supports fancy highlighting. Please check, Web : http://taesoo.org/Opensource/Pylookup Repo : http://github.com/tsgates/pylookup <INSTALL> ** [PATH] parameter totally depends on your environment, ex) "~/.emacs.d/pylookup" ;; ====================================================================== ;; add pylookup to your loadpath, ex) ~/.emacs.d/pylookup (setq pylookup-dir "[PATH]") (add-to-list 'load-path pylookup-dir) ;; load pylookup when compile time (eval-when-compile (require 'pylookup)) ;; set executable file and db file (setq pylookup-program (concat pylookup-dir "/pylookup.py")) (setq pylookup-db-file (concat pylookup-dir "/pylookup.db")) ;; to speedup, just load it on demand (autoload 'pylookup-lookup "pylookup" "Lookup SEARCH-TERM in the Python HTML indexes." t) (autoload 'pylookup-update "pylookup" "Run pylookup-update and create the database at `pylookup-db-file'." t) ;;---------------------------------------------------------------------- <SEARCHING LOCAL HTML> Index the database by yourself 1. download any versions of documents from 'http://docs.python.org' 2. indexing by typing './pylookup.py -u python-2.7.1-docs-html' (or './pylookup.py -u http://docs.python.org' if you want to access online doc) 3. testing: './pylookup.py -l ljust' you should see some results, good luck <UPDATING DATABASE> - Single source './pylookup.py -u http://docs.python.org' - Multiple sources, remote and local './pylookup.py -u http://docs.python.org -u ~/dev/python' - Adding local source to existing database (duplicate entries are not checked) './pylookup.py -a -u ~/dev/python'
