I looked a little deeper and as far as I can see there's two options:

1 - you can start the pydocs as described, leave the browser window open and quit the pydoc.browse. Your Poser and your Python is no longer blocked. All hyperlinks are internal so your browser will work from the cache as long as you keep the browser window open.

2 - To produce a persistent copy, say as a word document:

- open Microsoft Word (That's what I used. Not sure about other similar apps.)

- In Poser start the pydocs browser as described above. Page shows in your browser. 

- From the address field of that browser copy the address.

- Tell MS-Word to open that page.

- on that page 'copy all'

- open a new blank page and paste all.

You can then save the info as an independent word document. Hyperlinks refer to the original on 'localhost' sadly. 

When you are clever with code hacking you may try to save the .docx as a .rtf and search/replace the link address.
