text/plain for inner parts, but application/x-www-form-urlencoded
for outer parts. Honor any existing content-type header.
Lower down, if the content-type header is something we don't
understand (say because it there was a typo in the header coming from
the client), default to text/plain for inner parts, but
application/x-www-form-urlencoded for outer parts.
in autoexec.bat in order to find the Tcl DLLs -- Tkinter calls FixTk
which will hunt around in a few common places and then set PATH
and try again, or else issue a big clarifying error message.
Extended the rfc822 parsedate routines to handle the cases they failed
on in an archive of ~37,000 messages. I believe the changes are
compatible, in that all previously correct parsing are still correct.
[I still see problems with some messages, but no showstoppers.]
# Message to all python-checkins readers: we have a problem with the

# We hope to have fixed this by noon EST today.

The message ID is returned lowercased and there is no way to access
the original ID the server sent. Now at least some news servers
are very picky about the case of the ID and return errors when
fetching articles with mixed case given a lowercased version
of the ID.
The solution is simple: remove the string.lower() call.
"""
(I might add that the lowercasing was probably introduced as a result
of sloppy copy-and-paste coding; there's a string.lower in a similar
piece of code a bit higher in the source, that makes more sense --
it's lowercasing the group name.)
yours, please let me know for propoer acknowledgement.)
This avoids recompiling files that haven't changed; it adds a -f
option to force recompilation.
- Fixed a bug where a syntax error was reported when a document
started with white space. (White space at the start of a document
is valid if there is no XML declaration.)
- Improved the speed quite a bit for documents that don't make use of
namespaces.
Here is my current version of xmllib.py and the documentation. This
version has some API changes with respect to the version currently in
Python (also the one in 1.5.2a).
This version supports XML namespaces.
File names with "funny" characters get translated wrong by
pathname2url (any variety). E.g. the (Unix) file "/ufs/sjoerd/#tmp"
gets translated into "/ufs/sjoerd/#tmp" which, when interpreted as a
URL is file "/ufs/sjoerd/" with fragment ID "tmp".
Here's an easy fix. (An alternative fix would be to change the
various implementations of pathname2url and url2pathname to include
calls to quote and unquote.
[The main problem is with the normal use of URLs:
url = url2pathname(file)
transmit url
url, tag = splittag(url)
urlopen(url)
]
In addition, this patch fixes some uses of unquote:
- the host part of URLs should be unquoted
- the file path in the FTP URL should be unquoted before it is split
into components.
- because of the latter, I removed all unquoting from ftpwrapper,
and moved it to the caller, but that is not essential
when we create a recursive instance, by setting the class variable
'FieldStorageClass' to the desired class. By default, this is set to
None, in which case we use self.__class__ (as before).
When literal mode is entered it should exit automatically when the
matching close tag of the last unclosed open tag is encountered. This
patch fixes this.
In SimpleHTTPServer.py, the server specified in test() should
be BaseHTTPServer.HTTPServer, in case the request handler should
want to reference the two attributes added by
BaseHTTPServer.server_bind:
self.server_name = hostname
self.server_port = port
There was some Bobo CGI code that wanted access to those attributes.
In CGIHTTPServer.py, the list of acceptable formats is -split-
on spaces but -joined- on commas, resulting in double commas
in the joined text. It appears harmless to my browser but
ought to be fixed anyway.
'A, B, C' -> 'A,', 'B,', 'C,' -> 'A,,B,,C'
Because it might be a common mistake to pass a single string, this
situation is treated separately.
Since we were making a copy of the longopts list anyway, we now use
the list() function -- this made it necessary to change all uses of
the local variable (and argument) 'list' to something more meaningful,
i.e., 'opts'.
Also added docstrings (copied from the library manual) and removed the
(now redundant) module comments.
