I have it, don't use it. I don't find it adds enough to the official docs to
be useful. A handful of bookmarks and a Firefox "Quick Search" that lets me
go direct to the docs for any module is most of the docs I need.

(Quick Search - make a bookmark in the Quick Searches folder with the
location
http://docs.python.org/library/%s.html

Give the bookmark the keyword 'py' or whatever. Then typing 'py urllib' in
the address bar goes right to the docs for urllib.)

No :-(
