Initial Comment:
Using ActivePython 2.4.3 on Windows XP
While in the Pythonwin IDE, if I seek keyword help by
issuing the following command:
>>>help ('while') or
>>>help ('functions')
I get:
Sorry, topic and keyword documentation is not available
because the Python HTML documentation files could not
be found. If you have installed them, please set the
environment variable PYTHONDOCS to
indicate their location.
My PYTHONDOCS variable is set to:
c:\python24\Doc\Python-Docs-2.4.2\ref
which appears to be correct (ie the help html files are
installed there).
Searching this group, I found someone else complaining
about the same behavior with no clear resolution.

This isn't related to Pythonwin. If you try the same thing
from python.exe, you will get the same result. Pythonwin
does nothing special to support help() - that is built into
Python itself.
