with the additional feature of being able to send :kbd:`Ctrl+C` and :kbd:`Ctrl+Break`
to console subprocesses which are designed to handle those signals. See
:func:`os.kill` for further details.

How do I extract the downloaded documentation on Windows?
---------------------------------------------------------

Sometimes, when you download the documentation package to a Windows machine
using a web browser, the file extension of the saved file ends up being .EXE.
This is a mistake; the extension should be .TGZ.

Simply rename the downloaded file to have the .TGZ extension, and WinZip will be
able to handle it. (If your copy of WinZip doesn't, get a newer one from
https://www.winzip.com.)
