<p>Help menu entry “IDLE Help” displays a formatted html version of the
IDLE chapter of the Library Reference. The result, in a read-only
tkinter text window, is close to what one sees in a web browser.
Navigate through the text with a mousewheel,
the scrollbar, or up and down arrow keys held down.

is the currently running Python version. If your system
has an off-line copy of the docs (this may be an installation option),
that will be opened instead.</p>
