Hi Brett,

after discussing with Wim I understand that this translates to the question: could PyROOT programmatically query THtml for the documentation of a class, given its name?

The current answer is no, not yet, and it won't show up this year. I know it's a pity, because I agree that this feature is a fantastic one, be it for interpreters of whichever language or GUIs. We all want to be able to press F1! :-)

Cheers, Axel.
