I've just committed a patch in the vim package implementing the support
you request for ruby files (using 'ri') and perl files (using
'perldoc'). In fact I had the support for perl files in my ~/.vim since
ages, I've simply never thought about letting my support in the vim
package :-), thanks for suggesting the idea!
I quickly tried to mock up something for python, but I haven't a working
solution yet (that's why I'm tagging +help this bug report). The idea
for python would be to create something on the line of:
echo help('<KEYWORD>') | python
But it would be definitely better to have a program to be invoked. Maybe
we can create a wrapper to do this? ...
Cheers.
