Can Pycharm be configured to help learn python itself? I have pycharm setup right now and I'm trying to see its possible to set it up to help me learn more about the language. For example, and this is a simple example, lets say I created an empty list:
list = []
If I highlight over [] or control-click on it, pycharm tells me nothing about lists or anything about the brackets. Is it possible to set it up so that I can get to the official python documentation that talks about lists or anything that indicates its a list in the first place? I see that the official python documentation is not added to Pycharm's default external documents under Pycharms settings. If I add it, how to I pull it up for objects, sequence types, methods and all the other things that makes python tick? Pycharm is an awesome IDE and I have to believe its possible to set it up so the language itself it easier to learn when working in it.

At this time PyCharm is only able to provide help for library functions; it doesn't have any features for providing help on language features such as list literals.
