Greg Ward ccbb3f0ed4 Don't pollute importer's namespace with type objects from types modules. 
Added DistutilsPlatformError.
 1999-07-10 02:01:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 6ebb387a08 Patch by Jeffrey Chang to add docstrings everywhere. 
The text is condensed from the library manual.
 1999-07-09 21:15:32 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 7c85ab829d Marc-Andre Lemburg discovered that the switch from .pyc to .pyo files, 
done by _PyImport_Init(), comes to late to affect the import of
exceptions.py by _PyBuiltin_Init_2().  Move  _PyImport_Init() up few lines.

Fred Drake 3a4ceb707d Several methods return tuples, not lists. 1999-07-07 14:04:38 +00:00
Fred Drake 363d67c2e6 Move some misc. comments from the example section to the main section. 
Use the lowercase versions of the method names in the example, since
that's what's documented (Greg Stein's suggestion).  Add a blank line
after the import line for clarity.

Fred Drake d5f173bf1f FTP.dir(): Fix typo in docstring. 1999-07-07 13:36:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 1508970a47 dir() method description revised based on comments from Greg Stein. 1999-07-07 13:36:22 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 17a8b5d473 make_view_popups(): Catch import error which can occur if a viewer is 
dynamically imported when Pynche is running via askcolor out of a
package.  If the ImportError occurs, try again, prepending the package
name and digging out the module.
 1999-07-06 22:00:52 +00:00
Fred Drake 6166b871a2 Missing space; reported by Robert Kern <kernr@ncifcrf.gov>. 1999-07-06 21:00:18 +00:00

Jack Jansen c8c1b5dc64 Drag module added. 1999-07-05 09:40:13 +00:00
Fred Drake 919e74ce88 Darn! Forgot to re-target. 1999-07-02 15:27:14 +00:00
Fred Drake 5a8aaa7542 Remove one item. 
Rearrange & comment on others.
 1999-07-02 14:31:41 +00:00

Fred Drake 7d80779532 New documentation from Chris Petrilli <petrilli@amber.org>. 1999-07-02 14:25:03 +00:00
Fred Drake 227020894a For spawn*(), point to the magic constants; some readers have a hard 
time finding the bindings.
 1999-07-02 14:01:03 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9068da4b6d Milton L. Hankin reports that on Windows it is possible to have two 
different values in the environ dict with the same key (although he
couldn't explain exactly how this came to be).  Since getenv() uses
the first one, Python should do too. (Some doubts about case
sensitivity, but for now this at least seems the right thing to do
regardless of platform.)
 1999-07-02 02:54:02 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3427c1f71b Sjoerd Mullender: 
In splithost, accept empty host part in URLs.  This is required for
file URLs that can have an empty host part.  For such URLs, we should
not return the initial 2 slashes as part of the file name.
 1999-07-01 23:20:56 +00:00
Fred Drake e4694eba0f Removed entries for several modules which have been documented. 
Updated comments on several remaining modules.
 1999-07-01 20:42:57 +00:00
Fred Drake 4c8d83f311 Documentation for dl module from Moshe. 1999-07-01 20:40:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 44a7a7c5d0 Added entry for dl module. 1999-07-01 20:39:59 +00:00
Fred Drake b5879ca2e9 Relocating file to Lib/lib-old. 1999-07-01 16:59:29 +00:00
Fred Drake 85b5683307 Remove extraneous "contains" -- pointed out by Daniel Barclay 
<danielb@digitalfocus.com>.

Added credit to Martin von Loewis for creating the module and
documentation.
 1999-07-01 16:31:03 +00:00
Fred Drake 859dc53a52 Per Frank Stajano's suggestion, state explicitly that the functions 
described in the sub-sections are directly available at the module
level.  He found this confusing.
 1999-07-01 13:54:40 +00:00
Fred Drake b216060627 Make the reference to the os module in the module synopsis (for the 
table at the front of the chapter) a hyperlink.
 1999-07-01 13:53:32 +00:00
Just van Rossum 3e2d73fef8 Don't set type of application, it's taken care of elsewhere -- jvr 1999-06-30 19:31:14 +00:00
Fred Drake f1ad207f2a Made several grammatical corrections based on comments from Daniel 
Barcla <danielb@digitalfocus.com>.

Also added example of what happens when a parameter is set both
positionally and by a keyword (one of Daniels suggestions related to
that paragraph).
 1999-06-30 15:32:50 +00:00
Fred Drake 3d0971e33e For "Matching vs. Searching", remove comment that the section is 
incomplete; I don't remember what else I thought I was going to put
in, but it looks o.k. to me know.
 1999-06-29 21:21:19 +00:00
Fred Drake 9b59a303a8 Added some reminders. 1999-06-29 18:54:03 +00:00
Fred Drake d85b5a418a Move the setting for secnumdepth to the document classes; make the numbering 
for the manual class go one deeper than it previously did (\subsection
entries will now be numbered); no change for howto documents.

This makes it easier to refer precisely to smaller sections using \ref.
 1999-06-29 18:15:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 6bf37debb9 Added some minor prose before the descriptions of the data attributes 
to make it clear that these are instance attributes, not module data.
 1999-06-29 18:13:37 +00:00
Fred Drake abc64b74c8 Added entry for pty module. 1999-06-29 18:12:22 +00:00

Fred Drake 31d10cbe26 Improve description of the example. 1999-06-29 17:08:41 +00:00
Fred Drake f5213c2a3d Usage nit: a bunch of "nor"s should have been a single "or". 
Make reference to the copy_reg module a hyperlink.
 1999-06-29 16:02:12 +00:00
Fred Drake 8ad2703bfb Minor wording change in section title. 1999-06-29 16:00:22 +00:00
Fred Drake ac00c4c1c6 byteswap() method: Tell *what* exception gets raised when the type 
cannot be byteswapped.
 1999-06-29 15:58:00 +00:00
Fred Drake 9118f7cfc4 Remove unnecessary comma. 1999-06-29 15:53:52 +00:00
Fred Drake b8690fbc95 Define NotANumber as a subclass of ValueError when using class-based 
exceptions.

When raising NotANumber, pass the string that failed as the exception
value.
 1999-06-29 15:49:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 9e0b6229f6 Comment out XXX comment; this needn't appear in the formatted 
versions.  XXX comments only need to be grep-able.
 1999-06-29 15:45:09 +00:00
Fred Drake ef1a029d4c Add note about not being able to use this module with modules not 
implemented in Python.
 1999-06-29 15:43:02 +00:00

Fred Drake 2231357aa6 Mutex documentation from Moshe. 1999-06-27 15:00:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 7a65a26f81 Separate documentation of SUNAUDIODEV from sunaudiodev; this mirrors 
similar constructs elsewhere (al/AL, gl/GL/DEVICE).
