That's neat! 240 pages. We need to publish a separate book for the python
API with pictures and examples. Either that or the Blender 3.0 guide is
going to look like webster's dictionary with the python docs in it.

Hi,

Talking about the docs, did any of you try the "--pdf" option of epydoc?  I
was
testing this today, making some formatting changes to some docs so latex
wouldn't choke and no line would be too long.

The result: we're writing a book, fellow coders.  Run epydoc, waited a few
seconds and got a pdf with 240 pages, more than 900KB (less than 600KB
compressed).

To get it you need a working latex environment, like the one needed to build
Python official docs.  It goes from .py to tex to dvi to ps to pdf, so you
also
need the conversion programs like dvips and ps2pdf or something.

The pdf docs are different, they have all modules in alphabetical order,
starting with Armature and not the main Blender, like the html version.
