Issues with "pydoc httplib"

[patxoca]

I discovered pydoc.el a couple of days ago, its great! No contrived setup, works out of the box, useful ... very nice idea.

I've been playing with it a bit and I've found a couple of issues, they are not specific to httplib docs but this way you can reproduce the errors.

• Executing pydoc httplib fails with:

  pydoc-make-url-links: Search failed: "http://httplib:"

  Changing the regex on line 59 to https?: seems to solve the issue.

• Python 2.x old style classes are not linkified, btw class HTTP, class HTTPConnection etc. The problem is the regex used to identify classes, it expects a list of parent classes in parentheses. This will affect python 3.x classes too.

• Executing pydoc httplib.SomeClass does not linkify the methods, in this case the problem is the number of spaces on the left side of the vertical bar.

These are mostly fixed now. I found a better solution to the https? code I think: goto-address-mode. I think bullet 2 is fixed, and I think bullet 3 is fixed. Thanks for the report.
