Michael W. Hudson f008998668 Fix bug 
[ 555817 ] Flawed fcntl.ioctl implementation.

with my patch that allows for an array to be mutated when passed
as the buffer argument to ioctl() (details complicated by
backwards compatibility considerations -- read the docs!).

Skip Montanaro a5caa6fcd9 reference the os module and the lock flags in the os.open() function. 
(Someone please review what I wrote for accuracy.)

Fred Drake 6c123efe3d Refer the reader to the correct module for constant definitions. 
This closes SF bug #550777.
 2002-06-14 01:58:19 +00:00
Fred Drake 6a6bb1828b Clarify that on some systems, lockf() using LOCK_EX requires that the file 
is opened for writing; this closes SF bug #485342.

Added notes that file objects are also accepted in the place of file
descriptors.

Fred Drake c37b65ee10 Clean up some markup cruft. A number of the macros that take no 
parameters (like \UNIX) are commonly entered using an empty group to
separate the markup from a following inter-word space; this is not
needed when the next character is punctuation, or the markup is the
last thing in the enclosing group.  These cases were marked
inconsistently; the empty group is now *only* used when needed.

Fred Drake d0de57cfbb Update the fcntl module documentation. 2001-05-09 21:09:57 +00:00
Fred Drake b942c2f788 Fixed bug in example. 
This closes SF bug #415522.

Also fix markup error in text following the example.

Barry Warsaw 8ee1a4bdeb Provide a much better (and complete!) description of the lockf() 
function, based on an eyeballing of the code.

Fred Drake 6c7a46a2f0 Rob Hooft <rob@hooft.net>: 
Description of fcntl():  Added description of what can go wrong.
 2000-08-02 20:53:51 +00:00
Fred Drake 38e5d27cae Merged changes from the 1.5.2p2 release. 
(Very rough.)
 2000-04-03 20:13:55 +00:00
Guido van Rossum cf6905f986 Clarify the example by explicitly importing the fcntl module -- this 
avoid being fooled into thinking that fcntl and FCNTL are the same
thing -- they aren't!  (fcntl is the extension, FCNTL.py is h2py
output that defines all the constants).

(XXX The example is still weird -- I think there's a more portable way
to do locking now.  That's for someone else to fix...)

Fred Drake a54a887f66 "\platform{UNIX}" should really be spelled "\platform{Unix}". 1999-03-02 17:03:42 +00:00
Fred Drake f6863c1909 Added \platform annotations. 1999-03-02 16:37:17 +00:00
Fred Drake 295da24eaf New section header style. 
Fix up a few synopses.
 1998-08-10 19:42:37 +00:00
Fred Drake b91e934cf1 Adjusted to use the new module synopsis support macros. 1998-07-23 17:59:49 +00:00
Fred Drake 3a0351cf85 Remove all uses of \sectcode; we can now use logical markup everywhere. 1998-04-04 07:23:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 55e3cbd115 Fix one typo. 
Add a manpage reference.

Add an index entry.
 1998-04-03 06:54:27 +00:00
Fred Drake c71585e069 Logical markup. 
Markup consistency.

Removed incorrect \setindexsubitem{}.
 1998-03-12 05:33:40 +00:00
Fred Drake 12918af83e Added \label{} for logical addressing. 1998-02-18 15:10:24 +00:00
Fred Drake 1947991c2f Remove all \bcode / \ecode cruft; this is no longer needed. See previous 
checkin of myformat.sty.

Change "\renewcommand{\indexsubitem}{(...)}" to "\setindexsubitem{(...)}"
everywhere.

Some other minor nits that I happened to come across.
 1998-02-13 06:58:54 +00:00
Fred Drake 19b97b13fa Do the right magic to make \UNIX{} get sorted correctly in the index. 1998-02-09 20:16:18 +00:00
Fred Drake efc1e0f43b Consistency: 
"Unix" ==> "\UNIX{}"
 1998-01-13 19:00:33 +00:00
Fred Drake 19d58273c5 Fixed index references to modules. 
Made references to files use \file{} instead of \code{}.

Guido van Rossum e47da0ae04 AMK's megapatch: 
* \bcode, \ecode added everywhere
	* \label{module-foo} added everywhere
	* A few \seealso sections added.
	* Indentation fixed inside verbatim in lib*tex files
 1997-07-17 16:34:52 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9b0581192d Added embryonic description of fcntl.lockf(). Added pointer to that 
in posixfile (which is obsolescent).
 1996-10-11 17:43:34 +00:00
