Python doc problems example: gzip module

today i need to use Python to decompress gzip files.

since i'm familiar with Python doc and have 10 years of computing
experience with 4 years in unix admin and perl, i have quickly located
the official doc:

http://python.org/doc/2.4.1/lib/module-gzip.html

but after a minute of scanning, please someone tell me what the *** is
it talking about?

*** the Python programing morons.

Thanks.

I just need to decompress files. Is it:

import gzip;
gzip.GzipFile("/Users/xah/access_log.1.gz");

can someone put a example into that fucking doc so that people don't
have to wade thru whatever *** it is trying to sound big?
