From 01f5a81d11b935b3aa9ed3347d41a52daef07a3c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Guido van Rossum <guido@python.org>
Date: Wed, 25 Jan 1995 22:59:21 +0000
Subject: [PATCH] Lots of new stuff again.  Moved buffer types to some separate
 files. Added some new-fangled features to bgenOutput.  Generate doc strings!
