The servermanager module dynamically creates bunch of classes at
run-time, including AVSucdReader. Programs that search through the
source code can't access any of those classes. To get information
about a particular class, you should do
help(servermanager.sources.<classname>)
I believe there is a way of generating html out of that help but I
don't know how.
