Guido van Rossum c85be6a0ff Fix another oldie (item (b) only): 
Date:    Fri, 20 Dec 1996 14:47:50 +0100
From:    Lele Gaifax <lele@nautilus.eclipse.it>
To:      Python List <python-list@cwi.nl>
Subject: Typos in ref manual

Hi all,
browsing the reference manual I noticed what seem two small errors:
  a) in the list of keywords (section 2.3.1) 'exec' is missing
  b) in the Operator Precedence table (5.12) the comparison operators
     include '=', but probably '==' was intended.
Hope this help,
lele.

Fred Drake e593b6213a Small change to the l2h target allowing the output dir, $(HTMLDIR), to be 
a sibling of the html/ directory in the distribution.
 1998-05-15 17:50:32 +00:00
Fred Drake a4565b0796 Update to use latex2html 98.1p5. 1998-05-15 17:14:17 +00:00
Fred Drake 8dbf46a79e Update to use latex2html 98.1p5. 
Cleanup temporary files produced by latex2html in the output directory.
 1998-05-15 17:13:08 +00:00
Fred Drake e0a0fcd552 Update note about latex2html version required. 1998-05-15 17:03:00 +00:00
Fred Drake cdbd391415 Add support for the Macintosh Library Modules document. 1998-05-15 17:02:10 +00:00
Fred Drake 5b73cdfe60 Revise comment about \let support a little to more accurately reflect the 
support that's offered.
 1998-05-15 16:59:38 +00:00
Fred Drake 13b1f43851 Ignore the mac/ directory.... 1998-05-15 16:56:44 +00:00
Fred Drake d637406df1 Update to use the output names used by latex2html for the Python Reference 
Manual; the old FrameMaker names no longer apply.
 1998-05-15 16:18:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 7a4ad0fc83 Extend handling for \let a bit, to also allow \let\something=<character>. We 
still don't support things like \let^^M=\something, where ^^M could actually be
any active character.  Print a decent warning if we find one we can't handle.
 1998-05-15 13:45:54 +00:00
Fred Drake 8d1b3384c3 Remove debugging echo. 1998-05-15 13:38:21 +00:00
Fred Drake e16f6798ae do_cmd_let(): Simple implementation to allow \let to be used to establish 
synonyms for macros.  This supports:

	\let\newname = \oldname
	\let\newname\oldname

This is useful sometimes, and can at least avoid real errors at other times.
 1998-05-15 04:28:37 +00:00
Fred Drake d07868ae52 Added support for \developer, \developers, \developersaddress. 1998-05-14 21:00:28 +00:00
Fred Drake 6df93ef9dd Added definitions for \developer, \developers, \developersaddress. 
Ask Guido if you really want to know why.  ;-)
 1998-05-14 20:56:31 +00:00
Fred Drake df825a10fc Fix the fix to allow the .tex document sources not live in ".". 1998-05-14 20:36:49 +00:00
Fred Drake 25d4e2873c Mostly spurious change to ensure that everyone's version of this picks up the 
execute bit.... problem discovered by Guido.
 1998-05-14 20:07:10 +00:00
Fred Drake f4fc476885 Don't run tools/toc2bkm.py unless we're building PDF. 
Change the way TEXINPUTS gets defined to ensure that the directory containing
the main document file comes before any other dir, to allow documents to have
files that "override" like-named files elsewhere on the search path.  Guido
discovered we needed this.
 1998-05-14 20:03:14 +00:00
Fred Drake 5c07d9b028 Updated markup style (got rid of \verb@...@, mostly). 1998-05-14 19:37:06 +00:00
Fred Drake 203b4f1a25 Add an index entry. 
Bow to font lock.
 1998-05-14 15:16:12 +00:00

Fred Drake e34ab30a3f Switch to .tgz instead of .tar.gz to appease Windows users. 
Clean up the clean & clobber targets.
 1998-05-11 21:10:15 +00:00
Fred Drake 72dd58d90e Use .tgz instead of .tar.gz for the output file name. 1998-05-11 21:08:39 +00:00
Fred Drake d2af396dd5 Change ignored extension .tar.gz to .tgz. 1998-05-11 21:07:52 +00:00
Fred Drake 2f61cd4dcc Ignore intermediate files. 1998-05-11 21:06:18 +00:00
Fred Drake ba1700c7bb Set the right page size in the PDF output. 1998-05-11 20:42:54 +00:00
Fred Drake d5d473fd5c Add --letter option, similar to --a4. This is a no-op, but can be used from 
a Makefile:  mkhowto.sh --$(PAPER).
 1998-05-11 20:40:24 +00:00
Fred Drake 8981fdf16e Add the clean, clobber targets here for this directory. 1998-05-11 19:54:57 +00:00
Fred Drake a4c640e142 Reverted the last change; the extra cruft is harmless for formatted versions, 
and allows the info to work through this section.
 1998-05-11 19:51:11 +00:00
Fred Drake 58ff112e7f Don't be so ugly as to use "set -x" to get the executed commands printed. 1998-05-11 19:06:26 +00:00
Fred Drake 4190fae02a Added a section about documentation for the Mac modules. 1998-05-11 19:05:36 +00:00
Fred Drake 1a3541c29c Oops, better add it to the usage message! 1998-05-11 19:04:56 +00:00
Fred Drake 3504952781 Add easy-to-use support for A4 paper. 1998-05-11 19:04:06 +00:00
Fred Drake efad443351 Remove the tarhtml target; not useful from the sub-make. 1998-05-11 18:54:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 29cabd4cd7 Pass the release number to the tools/mktarball.sh script. 
Nits.
 1998-05-11 18:53:07 +00:00
Fred Drake f2fa1e2afe Accept the release number on the command line instead of hardcoding it. 1998-05-11 18:52:24 +00:00
Fred Drake 323dc70de5 Don't be so ugly as to use "set -x" to get the executed commands printed. 1998-05-11 18:41:16 +00:00
Fred Drake 2e7edb80e3 do_cmd_kwindex(): Re-implement now that \kwindex is used again (ref man). 1998-05-11 18:31:17 +00:00
Fred Drake d69e2c4f33 Update some of the comments. 
Update the .tar.gz targets so that they work from the top level.

Reinstate the api, ext, lib, ref, and tut targets.
 1998-05-11 18:25:46 +00:00
Fred Drake 41814bc51f In package Override, use the getcwd() function from the Cwd module instead of 
the one from Override.pm (part of latex2html).

Absolutize the TEXINPUTS environment variable, since we can't count on
latex2html doing it for us (even though I sent in a patch, and it really
should).
 1998-05-11 18:23:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 099b76c3bd Changed some comments.... no longer mention FrameMaker. 1998-05-11 16:31:32 +00:00
Fred Drake b9838d97ad Fix a comment. 
Avoid extra level of recursion in the paper-*/ directories.

Added the "info" target to use the subdir.  Partparse, however, is broken
again.
 1998-05-08 15:43:08 +00:00
Fred Drake 9447e592d9 No longer needed. 1998-05-08 15:41:23 +00:00
Fred Drake a5d80564af Remove unneeded line. 1998-05-08 15:40:46 +00:00
Fred Drake 02379fab61 Use \ldots, not \dots. The info process doesn't know about \dots. 1998-05-08 15:39:40 +00:00
Fred Drake 8ffa21c7aa Adjust to new file layout. 1998-05-08 15:37:13 +00:00
Fred Drake 47fd8fed7c Move the rules to build the info files here. 1998-05-08 15:36:36 +00:00
Fred Drake 230b530a6a Relocating file to Doc/info. 1998-05-08 15:35:36 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 7b0c9d8a07 exec is a statement, not a function! 1998-05-08 13:27:38 +00:00
Fred Drake 445cfd339c l2h target: Do the "right thing" regarding the paper-*/ subdirs as the other 
"big" targets.  Fix is to set the TEXINPUTS on the command line of the
	sub-make.
 1998-05-08 04:02:42 +00:00
Fred Drake f4166a478a Some versions of latex2html don't automatically append the .tex extension to 
the name of the main .tex source file if it's not in the current directory.
 1998-05-08 04:00:56 +00:00
Fred Drake df68e3dd6d $(KPSEWHICH): Use the older style of calling kpsewhich with the arg 
specifying *which* type of path to search.  This works for both
	teTeX 0.4 and 0.9.  This is what we call portability these days!  ;-)
 1998-05-08 03:46:38 +00:00
Fred Drake 4a9129c7e8 /bin/sed works on both Solaris and RedHat Linux; /usr/bin/sed does not. 1998-05-08 03:42:23 +00:00
Fred Drake 566d20951d Oops! Must have deleted a word by accident before the last check-in of this 
file; "make" (the 'all' target) became a no-op!

Now works as previously described.
 1998-05-08 02:00:48 +00:00
Fred Drake 19c7c84db8 Be a little more robust handling filenames. 1998-05-07 21:20:39 +00:00
Fred Drake 8923c72c8f Ignore the webchecker turd. 1998-05-07 20:13:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 0a96cca7ec Added the webcheck target here. 1998-05-07 20:00:59 +00:00
Fred Drake f295113f1f Cleaned out some more cruft. 
Added some new cruft.

For some of the "big" targets, force things to happen in the "right"
subdirectory, i.e., "make" will build the DVI and PostScript files in the
paper-letter/ directory, and "make PAPER=a4" will build DVI and PostScript
files in the paper-a4/ directory.

Probably still needs some restructuring.
 1998-05-07 19:30:16 +00:00
Fred Drake a34f7e6a5d Some cleanup, added clean & clobber targets. 1998-05-07 19:27:40 +00:00
Fred Drake bf332696a1 Add support for a --pdf option to cause a PDF file to be created instead; 
most of the processing is the same and has to be done anyway.
 1998-05-07 17:28:42 +00:00
Fred Drake f8e4415578 Markup consistency. 
Using \input instead of \include to avoid extra .aux files from being
generated.
 1998-05-07 17:27:32 +00:00
Fred Drake 47b0ecd580 Small updates. 1998-05-07 16:32:56 +00:00
Fred Drake 0ef1b079a2 Preliminary convenience Makefile. 1998-05-07 15:12:51 +00:00
Fred Drake 106fe12ebf Better go ahead and remove some cruftiness.... 1998-05-07 15:05:56 +00:00
Fred Drake 9cdf08797e Support the new directory structure. 
Some targets may be a little raw, but the basic formatting targets are all
tested, primarily for use from the subdirs.  There are probably a few
gotchas, and the paper-*/ directories could use "helper" Makefiles.
 1998-05-07 15:03:25 +00:00
Fred Drake 46ed208b46 Relocating file to Doc/html. 1998-05-07 15:00:46 +00:00

Fred Drake 4c9542b271 Ignore subdirectories if your name is "cvs". 1998-05-07 14:51:53 +00:00
Fred Drake 60515f49b8 Sub-makefile that can be used to drive the HTML conversion from this subdir. 
Most of the logic is still in the primary Makefile and a new script in
Doc/tools/.
 1998-05-07 14:50:22 +00:00

Fred Drake bbe33c5594 More changes to support the new directory structure. 1998-05-07 01:39:06 +00:00
Fred Drake 5360879740 New helper script to build the .dvi for a Python manual; usable for the 
api, ext, ref, and tut manuals.  The Library Reference requires too much
special index processing to make it beneficial to extend this to support
it.
 1998-05-07 01:38:16 +00:00

being in the current directory.

Removed some old stuff.

Do better hiding of internal names.

Fred Drake 188a8471b8 Moved popen2 entry to make more sense. 
Added bisect entry.
 1998-04-28 18:27:53 +00:00
Fred Drake 125024a87d Updated. 1998-04-28 18:27:22 +00:00

is now a tuple of various and sundry exceptions.

some reorganization.
 1998-04-28 14:28:15 +00:00
Fred Drake 2a1cc3e171 Use of \key and \kbd were isolated to one instance each in this file; 
normalize to \kbd to allow removal of \key from the document class.
 1998-04-28 13:38:54 +00:00
Fred Drake 4f31694d37 Document transfercmd(), ntransfercmd(), delete(), rmd(), size(). 
Thanks to Timothy Wild <twild@clear.net.nz> for catching the omission of
delete().
 1998-04-27 14:54:06 +00:00
Fred Drake 23916e78d0 clean target: Remove intermediate files from creation of outline in PDF. 1998-04-25 04:15:56 +00:00

for the manual documents.
 1998-04-25 04:12:17 +00:00
Fred Drake b4929a794e Paper size / font size configuration file. 
This is separated so I can build A4 and US Letter sizes without having to
edit files.

Anyone who downloads the source package can also simply edit this file,
which is a lot shorter than the manual.cls file, and easier to find the
appropriate line.
 1998-04-25 04:11:27 +00:00
Fred Drake 8805354bbc Simplify how some options get propogated. 1998-04-24 21:57:12 +00:00
Fred Drake 3af9f2514f Added libpoplib.tex to dependencies for the library reference. 
Some mods to allow PS to be generated when the current dir is *not* Doc;
to help out with generating A4 versions.
 1998-04-24 21:07:22 +00:00
Fred Drake a468404dda Added a section for the poplib module, contributed by Drew Csillag. 1998-04-24 20:49:02 +00:00

Guido van Rossum a937d14898 Fred's right -- we need PyList_SET_ITEM(). 1998-04-24 18:22:02 +00:00
Barry Warsaw dc1c970b0f This script appears to no longer be in the toolchain for Python 
documentation, so it has been moved to ../../Tools/scripts

Fred, please verify.

I suppose we really do need a markup guide.  -sigh-
 1998-04-23 14:06:01 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 4447513e94 Filled in some more blanks, with the help of Drew Csillag. 1998-04-21 15:30:01 +00:00
Fred Drake 255284b42a Fix problem for the Library Reference where high-numbered sections of 
high-numbered chapters took too much space for the section number in the
table of contents.  This makes the section number and title not overlap.
 1998-04-20 16:55:14 +00:00
Fred Drake 42de185a77 Added \label to subsections which didn't have one, since this module has 
subsections listed in the documentation index sidebar.  (Why?)
 1998-04-20 16:28:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a933f6a53d Fix vonmisesvariate() -- it now returns an angle between 0 and *two* 
times pi.  Got rid of $math$ here and in one other place.
 1998-04-20 14:43:44 +00:00
Fred Drake 476412a918 cleanup(): Get rid of module index turds. 1998-04-17 20:25:55 +00:00
Fred Drake daf71fca54 Ignore the mac/ directory where latex2html spits out HTML. 1998-04-17 20:08:36 +00:00
Fred Drake a2890b0986 Make the intro section explicit, so that latex2html puts it on a separate 
page from the table of contents.
 1998-04-17 20:07:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 7984256f4d build_ps(): Fix flags to dvips. 
build_html():  Deal with node2label.pl a little better.
 1998-04-17 20:06:16 +00:00
Fred Drake 5ccf330e4c next_optional_argument(): Don't include the square brackets in the return 
value.

ArabictoRoman():  Acquired function from Robert Donohue
	<donahue@cfassp48.harvard.edu>; might be useful someday, and I don't
	want to figure it out again!
 1998-04-17 20:04:09 +00:00
Fred Drake 4f6d6e487c Fix things. Blame Andy Eskilsson <andy.eskilsson@telelogic.se>. 
But I'm not giving this or the info files out until Andy (or anyone else)
agrees to take over the maintenance of this script!  Hah!
 1998-04-17 15:28:09 +00:00
Fred Drake 4f5155817b Mark TMPDIR correctly. 1998-04-17 14:51:04 +00:00
Fred Drake bdbdb80b0b Separate the Mac-related files from the library reference files. The new 
variable isn't used yet.
 1998-04-17 14:01:44 +00:00
Fred Drake 1d9fb63293 Remove commented-out Mac chapter. 1998-04-17 13:24:55 +00:00

PDF output properly supports the outline.

manual.
 1998-04-17 02:47:13 +00:00

break HOWTO documents.
 1998-04-17 02:45:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 300775d222 Hide \varvars from "public" interface. 1998-04-17 02:17:00 +00:00
Fred Drake 08932054e9 New helper functions to help deal with parameter parsing. 
Use the helpers in do_cmd_*() and do_env_*(); *much* cleaner!
 1998-04-17 02:15:42 +00:00
Fred Drake 64bdc24301 Code cleanup, some syntax modernization. 1998-04-17 02:14:12 +00:00
Fred Drake 6b303b4bdd Signature for dir() omitted the optional argument. 1998-04-16 22:10:27 +00:00
Fred Drake bf88c3830e Fix the broken PDF links, really this time! 
Appending a junk char to the end doesn't quite do it, or doesn't seem to at
any rate.  Instead, pad the page numbers to always be 3 charaters wide, with
leading zeros.
 1998-04-15 17:50:22 +00:00
Fred Drake a2c2a836d7 Fix the broken PDF links, really this time! 
"." cannot be part of the target names either.

Appending a junk char to the end doesn't quite do it, or doesn't seem to at
any rate.  Instead, pad the page numbers to always be 3 charaters wide, with
leading zeros.
 1998-04-15 17:50:01 +00:00
Fred Drake a88d681255 Change the form of the name given to each page of the PDF from "page.%d" to 
"page.%dx"; this works around an acroread bug that causes targets not to be
recognized if their name is a prefix of another target in the file.
 1998-04-15 14:53:28 +00:00
Fred Drake d671e8fb87 Added dependency on the tools/toc2bkm.py script for the PDF files. 1998-04-15 14:50:56 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3c4378bd9b Some patches by Drew Csillag; plus a few of my own uncommitted changes. 1998-04-14 20:21:10 +00:00
Fred Drake 12d9fc94f4 Use shorter labels; using long labels creates problems on the Macintosh. 
(Thanks, Just!)
 1998-04-14 17:19:54 +00:00
Fred Drake 95638f5b0f Added entry for Tkdnd.py. 1998-04-14 04:55:43 +00:00

Fred Drake c4f1ca1967 Add a note that pickling is supported. 1998-04-13 16:27:27 +00:00
Fred Drake 3e7a48e0d9 Revert markup around list of display fields from the disassembler; it doesn't 
look at good in print, but doesn't break the HTML.
 1998-04-13 16:15:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 3ad125e611 Fix bug in little-used markup: don't forget to pass the source text along! 1998-04-13 14:18:57 +00:00
Fred Drake 7238988657 Fixed example to load the startup file from a script (didn't test for the 
file's existance).

Removed some XXX comments about extension modules which support pickling.

Added text from AMK about the readline and rlcompleter modules.

Thanks, AMK!
 1998-04-13 01:31:10 +00:00
Fred Drake 003d8da779 Typo: (and often severly limited) -- severely 
Typo: (but not to the tuple or list into which the item it put!) -- is put

Thanks, AMK!
 1998-04-13 00:53:42 +00:00
Fred Drake b85fbec83b "ZeroDevisionError" --> "ZeroDivisionError" 
Thanks, AMK!
 1998-04-13 00:50:04 +00:00
Fred Drake a608febd5f Fix typo. (What I get for trying to fix bugs at home and running conversions 
at work....)
 1998-04-12 03:58:13 +00:00
Fred Drake ae9bc67e0e Don't append () to the name of an object attribute in the index. 1998-04-12 03:49:46 +00:00
Fred Drake 6250205166 Use {methoddesc} instead of {funcdesc} for object methods. 1998-04-12 03:31:31 +00:00

Fred Drake c303e67f3c The built-in exceptions are not still strings, so make no claims about them. 1998-04-12 02:48:47 +00:00
Fred Drake c94d9348ca In descriptions of Py_GetPrefix() and Py_GetExecPrefix(), make sure the 
"--" at the start of the configure options isn't collapsed to "-" when the
HTML is generated.
 1998-04-12 02:39:13 +00:00
Fred Drake 1072e46263 Added a simpler, working {verbatim} support that generates legitimate HTML. 
(2 lines, explained by 6 lines of comments....)
 1998-04-12 02:16:34 +00:00
Fred Drake b73bc31e39 Removed partially broken {verbatim} support. 1998-04-12 02:13:14 +00:00

Fred Drake 7e9383ab59 Add a comment to indicate the methods of the StringIO are being discussed... 1998-04-11 18:05:24 +00:00
Fred Drake 70c460c84d Remove imaplib from the undocumented list. 1998-04-11 16:58:26 +00:00
Fred Drake a38a2867d0 Include () after function name. 
One more logical mark.
 1998-04-11 16:57:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 0d213d3497 When the text of a table cell should be wrapped, used a "p" column. 1998-04-11 16:40:46 +00:00
Fred Drake 2b8c95e4ed Minor housing cleaning in HTML that gets generated. 1998-04-11 16:26:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 34672dbb38 Remove over-active replace-string turds. 1998-04-11 16:24:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 8f6b958fdb Use {memberdesc} to mark the instance attributes. 1998-04-11 15:11:55 +00:00
Fred Drake 7dba8e2ab4 Hmmm... better add some \label macros for logical addressing while I'm at it. 1998-04-11 13:51:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 2a37455967 It's "Lauder", not "Lauders"! 1998-04-11 13:48:26 +00:00
Fred Drake 9d4b6c52c3 Update the module index support to use the changed field separator for the 
input file to buildindex.py.
 1998-04-11 05:21:14 +00:00
Fred Drake e5cf53ad89 Formatting nits. 
An index entry.
 1998-04-11 05:02:45 +00:00
Fred Drake eb4ed15be8 Shift index entries around a little so the HTML doesn't have weird spacing. 1998-04-11 04:52:15 +00:00
Fred Drake 1e0f8bfea9 Add imaplib to appropriate lists. 1998-04-11 04:27:07 +00:00

 1998-04-11 03:12:06 +00:00
Fred Drake 007bac3b0b Added smtplib.py (thanks, Guido!). 1998-04-09 18:54:01 +00:00
Fred Drake 2cb824cbf9 Don't use \samp when \code is better. 
Consistently use ' instead of ":  this conforms to my unofficial stance that
constants should be presented using the repr() whenever it makes sense.  This
isn't because I think repr() is the greatest thing since spam, just that it's
an easy to adopt consistency standard.  (It also holds no new surprises!)
 1998-04-09 18:10:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 5cca42e0b7 do_cmd_lineii(), 
do_cmd_lineiii():  Fix markup style conversion to HTML tags for first column.

 1998-04-09 17:59:11 +00:00

Fred Drake 45c634ecae Work around a small (& annoying) limitation of the latex2html support for 
\seemodule.  This is far easier than figuring out the real problem, but it
works.
 1998-04-09 15:44:58 +00:00
Fred Drake 8a254b5967 Removed misleading comment about GNU software. This module and the zlib 
library have no relationship with GNU software other than implementing some of
the same algorithms and file format.  (The zlib module is more general.)
 1998-04-09 15:41:44 +00:00
Fred Drake 45084ed52a Added note about current status of info generation. 1998-04-09 15:19:41 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 253328104f Many markup changes (to \regexp, mostly) 
Clarified text on 8-bit cleanness, complemented sets like [^5], and {m,n}
  qualifier.
 1998-04-09 14:56:04 +00:00
Fred Drake 02a8e6b600 Update release number and date. 1998-04-09 14:50:47 +00:00
Fred Drake 20ca9171c1 Don't assume that \version expands to the 3-character major.minor number; it 
is the full release version name ("1.5.1beta1", for instance).

Add section for previously documented obsolete modules.  Includes ni, rand,
and soundex.
 1998-04-09 14:32:28 +00:00
Fred Drake 363ab1a613 Comment out the soundex section. 1998-04-09 14:23:48 +00:00
Fred Drake 2de75ec245 Don't assume that \version expands to the 3-character major.minor number; it 
is the full release version name ("1.5.1beta1", for instance).
 1998-04-09 14:12:11 +00:00
Fred Drake 9da38814a3 Use the correct URL to AMK's regex-to-re HOWTO! 1998-04-09 14:06:33 +00:00

Fred Drake 058068d992 Nearly a complete re-write. 
Basically, it now works and produces a nice-looking HTML index.

Shows some promise for extensibility, but still young.  Needs useful comments.
 1998-04-08 23:12:51 +00:00
Fred Drake 166abbabf9 Remove option to strip out <tt>...</tt> from index entry text; this is now 
left to the buildindex.py script.

Change the field separator used in the index.dat file so utilities like grep
are useful on these files; they can't typically handle NUL bytes.

Protect index entries for environment variables from being handled as
case-insensitive by buildindex.py.
 1998-04-08 23:10:54 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ae2be7144d Correct definition of CTIME. 1998-04-08 22:44:25 +00:00
Fred Drake 3f3c25fc03 Set flag to remove <tt>...</tt> markup from the index entries; it just ends up 
looking really bad in popular browsers, mostly due to vertical size differences
between the roman and monospaced fonts.
 1998-04-08 13:46:24 +00:00
Fred Drake 2764dd33cf Separate sections on anydbm and dumbdbm. 
This is the last separation; each module now gets its own section.  This will
be useful in performing conversions.
 1998-04-07 22:08:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 8e729ec31a Caught a few more spurious \setindexsubitem macros.... 1998-04-07 22:06:41 +00:00

noted that the original algorithm produces 4-character results rather than
the 6-character results provided by this module.
 1998-04-07 19:58:19 +00:00
Fred Drake 41565f66b6 Data attributes of objects should not be indexed with trailing parentheses! 1998-04-07 19:32:40 +00:00

Massive migration to methoddesc and memberdesc.

Logical markup as needed.

A sprinkling of index entries for flavor.
 1998-04-04 07:15:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 71c1e502f0 Moved some things around. 
Adjusted a couple of the comments to be more informative.

Tell a little bit about what obsolete means now, and how to use obsolete
modules.

Index entries.
 1998-04-04 06:23:02 +00:00

Fred Drake e14dde2117 Fixed description of similarity between m[name] and m.getheader(name), 
reported by Samuel L. Bayer.

Use methoddesc instead of funcdesc, etc.
 1998-04-04 06:19:30 +00:00
