CHM's index function is very convenient, I almost always use this feature when I use CHM.

How about use tkinter to write a doc indexing tool, it reads the indexes in this page:
https://docs.python.org/3/genindex-all.html

Its behavior is the same as CHM's index, except that the link is opened in browser.

This indexing tool can be packaged with Python installer, just like IDLE, then MacOS/Linux users can also use the index.
