when the help window pops up, what are the basic commands (mac os) to page up/down, end of document and exiting the help screen?
I just had to close my terminal as I couldn't figure it out!
If no argument is passed, Python's help utility (interactive help system) starts on the console. To quit the help utility and return to the interpreter, you need to type quit and press enter.
1 Answer. Show activity on this post. The help menu opens up in your default pager (usually less ). Press q to quit it.
To quit this help utility and return to the interpreter, just type "quit". To get a list of available modules, keywords, or topics, type "modules", "keywords", or "topics".
You are probably in less
(this is configurable through the PAGER
environment variable, but you probably haven't changed that). Press h for help and q to quit.
