It looks up either module name and open the relevant page or looks up a built in function and opens at the entry in the Builtin functions page. If anyone would like more functionality please contact me. To use it you must have Apple Data Detectors 1.0.2 installed This can be obtained from http://www.apple.com/applescript/data_detectors/ Two action files are provided "OpenPythonLib" will open the library file with whatever application is defined as the Internet Config 'file' helper. "OpenPythonLib with NS" opens the library file with Netscape. Instructions ============ 1/ Open the two apple script files with the Script Editor and change the first compiled line to point to the location of your Python Library folder. 2/ Open the Apple Data Detectors Control Panel and choose Install Detector File... from the File menu. 3/ Pick a Detector file from the dialog. 4/ Let the Data Detectors Control Panel optimize the detector. 5/ Choose Install Action File... from the File menu. 6/ Pick an action file from the dialog. 7/ The Data Detectors Control Panel will automatically place the new action with its detector. You can click on the action in the control panel window to view information about its use. Gotchas ======= Unfortunately ADD only works with the US keyboard installed.
