Note that the text viewing windows are non-modal, which allows keeping them open while continuing to work in the shell.

@terryjreedy, this is a small, relatively simple code change providing a significant UX improvement; I'd love to get this into 3.8. Pending your review!

I've merged the latest main branch into this PR.

It is still missing a configuration option for disabling this feature or setting a minimum number of help text lines for triggering it, as requested by @terryjreedy on the bpo issue.

This missed the boat for inclusion in Python 3.9 which accepts security fixes only as of today.
