Shell Script to lookup QNX docs

Here is a shell script that should run on any system with Python but I only tried it on Mac. It will lookup the QNX documentation for any library call you pass in on the command line.
This is how you use it:
qnxhelp printf
And it will then open up a web browser with the docs for 6.4.1′s library page for printf.
Here is the script code for qnxhelp:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import os, string, sys, webbrowser
if (len(sys.argv) != 2):
print "Usage: %s <command to lookup>" %(sys.argv[0])
else:
word = sys.argv[1]
char = word[:1]
location = "http://www.qnx.com/developers/docs/6.4.1/neutrino/lib_ref/%s/%s.html" % (string.lower(char), string.lower(word)) webbrowser.open(location)
