$ python
Python 2.7.8 (default, Oct 31 2014, 14:12:12) [DECC] on OpenVMS
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
 >>> print "Hi there"
Hi there
 >>>  Exit
$

Could you realy not do anything mnore then that?
Just silly.

There are the built in "help". Not structured like DCL HELP,
of course, since it is builtin in Python.

Then there is the excelent Python site with full docs/help.
https://docs.python.org/2.7/
There you have tutorial, reference and "how-to" docs.

It is generaly easier to find solutions/tips for
specific Python questions then for DCL issues.
