Tkinter help viewer
I have a simple Tkinter app in Python. I'd like to add help document to it; what is the simplest way to integrate an help viewer to the app? Preferably cross-platform (although I primarily use Windows)? I can imagine writing the help in plain HTML. Or just launch an external web browser, using the webbrowser module from the standard library. import webbrowser webbrowser.open('/path/to/help/file.html') For writing your documentation, have a look at sphinx . You could stick with writting in html, and then using something like this: Tkhtml which displays html pretty well and is fairly lightweight
