Fred Drake 0106e1dd20 Include the GNU info format in the edist target since we're now 
building a fair portion of the documentation as info.
 2003-07-17 15:29:16 +00:00

paper-size hook.
SF patch #772550.
 2003-07-17 04:15:35 +00:00
Skip Montanaro bfa6872260 Zap the C API subsection altogether for now. It's not actually usable from 
C yet anyway.
 2003-07-16 21:14:35 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling aa9b39f910 Mention list.index; more small textual changes 2003-07-16 20:37:26 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling c760c6c442 Add reminder list of things to document; mention sys.getcheckinterval() and socket.timeout exception 2003-07-16 20:12:33 +00:00
Skip Montanaro 2491cd98c4 expose the C API subsection which was hidden from LaTeX in a comment. In 
the info conversion the \comment LaTeX macro mapped to a Texinfo @ignore
macro.  Unfortunately, py2texi.el is not smart enough to avoid generating
links to the @ignore'd section, which causes makeinfo to croak.

Exposing this text is probably not the most correct thing to do, as this
documentation really belongs in the C API manual.  This does get the info
files generated, however, which is a more practical goal considering the
impending release of 2.3rc1.

Raymond Hettinger 4d6e8fe5d1 Clarify the lack of relationship between rich comparison operators. 
Prompted by a discussion on comp.lang.python.
 2003-07-16 19:40:23 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 71adf7e9d8 Doctest now examines all docstrings by default. Previously, it would 
skip over functions with private names (as indicated by the underscore
naming convention).  The old default created too much of a risk that
user tests were being skipped inadvertently.  Note, this change could
break code in the unlikely case that someone had intentionally put
failing tests in the docstrings of private functions.  The breakage
is easily fixable by specifying the old behavior when calling testmod()
or Tester().  The more likely case is that the silent failure was
unintended and that the user needed to be informed so the test could be
fixed.

Fred Drake 853276e16d Lots of markup cleanups to avoid warnings from the GNU info generation; 
these make sense even without that processing chain.
 2003-07-16 17:58:38 +00:00
Fred Drake 788617f8f0 Remove \versionchanged; the text was too complex for the GNU info 
conversion to support.  Keep the content as normal content, with a
note that this applies starting in Python 2.3.
 2003-07-16 16:19:08 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 2cd773160d Minor text changes; update bug/patch count (quite a jump!) 2003-07-16 14:44:12 +00:00
Fred Drake bd5fdd93a9 Make it easier to figure out the where a menuselection starts and ends 
by controling the font.

Raymond Hettinger 46f681cc07 Discussion of signatures for unicode.translate() and str.translate() 
were in the wrong file.  Moved out of libstring.tex and into

Fred Drake 3605ae5966 In the description of enumerate(), the indexing operators should not 
be included in the \var.  This produced weird results in general, but
broke the GNU info conversion.
 2003-07-16 03:26:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 7769bb9224 Teach this script about \AA and \aa (the Scandanavian A-ring

Fred Drake d51ce7de97 Indexing is a mess; try to get the link targets closer to the relevant 
text.  There needs to be a better way.
