pstdoc – A tool for PSTricks documentation
The bundle provides an SQLite database and a Python script that provides extensive help with PSTricks commands from a terminal window.
For example pstdoc \psarc gives the syntax of \psarc and all associated keywords, with short definitions.
The script is known to work on Mac, Windows, and Linux systems; it requires Python 2.5 or better.
The database covers pstricks itself, pst-plot, pst-node, pst-text, pstricks-add, pst-3dplot and related packages.
