2000-09-01 02:47:25 +00:00
Fred Drake 65faf118b6 Fix markup error and minor consistency nit. 2000-08-31 19:35:56 +00:00

2000-08-31 19:23:01 +00:00
Fred Drake aef0e890b5 Document the limitation that urllib does not work with proxies which
require authenication.  This is an implementation limitation rather than
required behavior, and may be fixed in the future.

This closes SourceForge bug #111725.
2000-08-31 17:23:35 +00:00
Greg Ward e3cca26627 Added abstract. 2000-08-31 16:36:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 4c3f797128 UNARY_NEG is supposed to be UNARY_NEGATIVE (spotted by Charles Waldman
<cgw@fnal.gov>).

Fix minor problem with EXTENDED_ARG description markup..
2000-08-31 16:26:35 +00:00

Greg Ward 1365a300a1 Get rid of "sec:" prefix that slipped into a couple of \label's. 2000-08-31 14:47:05 +00:00
Sjoerd Mullender 1c8feae411 New method getnamespace.
Since the application never gets to see the namespace abbreviation
used in the XML document, but some applications may need to know them,
we provide this method.
2000-08-31 10:27:00 +00:00
Fred Drake f730fc3e4e Be a little more careful to avoid including style information in the
generated markup.

Don't be careless with the navigation icons!  We should use the blank
icon where there is not anyplace to go for a particular position in the
navigation bar.
2000-08-31 07:19:07 +00:00
Fred Drake 3eb7c126cd Always room to remove more formatting from the HTML! 2000-08-31 07:15:57 +00:00
Fred Drake 501b926da9 Move common parameters to mkhowto to a variable, add up-link from the
generated documents to the document index.
2000-08-31 07:00:17 +00:00
Fred Drake dfa539d770 Add --up-link and --up-title parameters to allow linking the top level
of the generated document to an external index.  These correspond to the
-up_url and -up_title parameters of LaTeX2HTML.
2000-08-31 06:58:34 +00:00
Fred Drake 3be2074758 Push some table header formatting to the style sheet; this also helps
separate some of the ties between l2hinit.perl and python.perl.

Revamp the "title page" construction to allow more flexibility.
2000-08-31 06:22:54 +00:00
Fred Drake 0154fea5f4 Remove obsolete scripts. 2000-08-31 06:15:30 +00:00
Fred Drake 8bc627a402 Add --l2h-init option, which can augment the standard LaTeX2HTML
initialization with additional Perl files.  This can be given more
than once.
2000-08-31 06:14:38 +00:00
Fred Drake b9b4c5b560 Centralize the processing logic for LaTeX documents into the mkhowto script;
do not use mkdvi.sh or mkhtl.sh any more.

This slows down building all versions of the documentation, but if you are
only building one format, it does not matter.
2000-08-31 06:12:35 +00:00
Fred Drake fcab76350a Relocate the popen2 documentation since it is now substantially more
portable.
2000-08-31 06:09:26 +00:00

Fix a couple of really minor markup nits.
2000-08-31 05:50:40 +00:00
Fred Drake 33642acef5 Added note about documenting the SSL support in the socket module. 2000-08-31 05:08:00 +00:00
Fred Drake eacc4fc5e6 Push a little more here to avoid style information in the generation
scripts as much as possible.
2000-08-30 15:02:13 +00:00
Fred Drake 4973b35991 Remove the reference to stdwin. The comment was still true, but no
longer meaningful to a new user, since stdwin is long gone.
2000-08-30 14:33:02 +00:00
Skip Montanaro 7b828a6a56 doc changes to parallel changes to calendar.py module 2000-08-30 14:02:25 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 3cdb5761c5 Fix markup error 2000-08-30 12:55:42 +00:00
Fred Drake d576e9df5f Markup revisions. Nothing was actually required to be able to format it,
but many conventions were broken.
2000-08-30 04:19:20 +00:00
Fred Drake 47eceeaaa4 Added a couple of links to online documentation. Reasonable since this
file is not used in the online documentation.
2000-08-30 03:30:40 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 28b815f28a Oops, spell MAL's name right. 2000-08-30 03:28:17 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 0691a6b8ed Documentation for the gettext module. 2000-08-30 03:27:10 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 058365aec5 Added libgettext.tex 2000-08-30 03:26:17 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 43737641c2 Removed forgotten text in list comprehensions section (taken from the Haskell
description of listcomps and used as inspiration)
Rearranged sections (which accounts for much of the size of the diffs)
Added section on augmented assignment
Mentioned 'print >>file'
Broke up the "Core Changes" section into subsections
2000-08-30 00:51:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 699f98c09a Move a little more here. 2000-08-29 21:57:34 +00:00
Fred Drake fcb8725de5 Add a --style option to allow specifying an alternate CSS style sheet for
HTML generation; the machinery was there but no option to set it was
defined.

Simplify some of the path-math since we can assume a recent version of
Python.
2000-08-29 18:15:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 78430b655f Add a comment noting that the dependency information is stored in
Makefile.deps.
2000-08-29 16:30:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 7e1a1d0c89 These files are not part of the current plan. 2000-08-29 06:08:06 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 33f785fc1e Document "print >> None" 2000-08-29 04:57:34 +00:00

Fred Drake 0308ff8652 Add reference to RFC 2396 in "See also" section.
Minor cleanups.
2000-08-25 17:29:35 +00:00
Fred Drake dfca4dc503 Revised documentation relevant to SourceForge patch #100837
(simplify making HTTP POST requests).

Added documentation of URLopener.version and how it can be overridden.
2000-08-25 05:13:42 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 99a3701618 Documentation for poll() interface (SF patch #100852) 2000-08-25 01:21:28 +00:00
Thomas Wouters 12bba852a9 Rough and incomplete documentation on augmented assignment, which follows
shortly. Markup also needs checking.
2000-08-24 20:06:04 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3d0c77b37c Addresses the other half of Bug #112634 -- the documentation suggested
that you can set self.version *after* calling the base class __init__.
In fact it must be done *before*.

(Fred, maybe the version class variable should be documented now?)
2000-08-24 16:20:32 +00:00
Fred Drake 45ca3331d9 Move references to RFCs to a "See also" section for consistency with
other sections of the library reference.
2000-08-24 04:58:25 +00:00
Fred Drake 9fa4d61bcc Moshe Zadka <moshez@math.huji.ac.il>:
Documentation updates for urlretrieve() and URLopener.retrieve(), to
reflect Randall Hopper's patch for those functions.

This closes SourceForge patch #100837.
2000-08-24 01:06:40 +00:00
Fred Drake 8377f5debf Make sure Thomas Wouters has enough to do. ;-)
(Some of this is in-progress; this also serves as a reminded to me to
check this out once it is written.)
2000-08-24 00:50:27 +00:00
Fred Drake 093272ea85 Charles G. Waldman <cgw@fnal.gov>:
Update the dis module documentation to reflect the EXTENDED_ARG opcode.
2000-08-24 00:37:50 +00:00
Skip Montanaro 323fe5df6a fix list comprehension discussion to use \keyword macro instead of simply
quoting keywords.
2000-08-23 17:03:34 +00:00
Skip Montanaro 297bf7ceb5 update commonprefix doc to make sure user is aware it works
character-by-character and that that behavior may result in it returning
prefixes that are not valid paths
2000-08-23 16:58:32 +00:00
Skip Montanaro 46dfa5f4ed require list comprehensions to start with a for clause 2000-08-22 02:43:07 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 9087688581 Describe the new PRINT_ITEM_TO and PRINT_NEWLINE_TO opcodes. 2000-08-21 17:19:00 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 8c0a242289 PEP 214, Extended print Statement, has been accepted by the BDFL.
Document the extended print form.  Fred, please double check the
markup!
2000-08-21 15:45:16 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 120beb6b67 Strengthen the warning against using SerialCookie and SmartCookie.
(If they're security holes, should they be documented at all?)
Minor rewrites.
2000-08-20 23:33:50 +00:00
Thomas Wouters 8bad612881 Disallow "import mod.submod as m", because the result is ambiguous. Does it
load mod.submod as m, or mod as m ? Both can be achieved differently, and
unambiguously. Also attempt to document this restriction (editor
appreciated!)

Note that this is an artificial check during compile, because incorporating
this in the grammar is hard, and then adjusting the compiler to do the right
thing with the right nodes is harder.
2000-08-19 20:55:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 15446d344d Add entry for Cookie module. 2000-08-19 16:55:31 +00:00
Fred Drake e5c7352201 Make it format.
Adjust markup for hyperlinking to the relevant RFCs.
Give it a little organization.
Minor nits.
2000-08-19 16:54:57 +00:00
Moshe Zadka 1b07f2bcf6 Initial revision. Markup unchecked. 2000-08-19 14:11:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 512bb72fb0 As pointed out by Denis S. Otkidach <den@analyt.chem.msu.ru>, xrange()
returns an xrange object, not a range object, despite the name of the
source file they're implemented in.

In the list of comparison operators, list != before <>, since <> is
described as obsolescent.
2000-08-18 03:12:38 +00:00
Fred Drake a00738259f Adjust the way __getslice__() is marked as deprecated; this will also
stand out more.
2000-08-18 02:42:14 +00:00
Fred Drake 304faf944c Fix a markup error that caused formatting to fail.
Lots of minor markup adjustments as well.
2000-08-18 02:15:55 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 59ecafa526 Mention the new 'import X as Y' syntax 2000-08-17 23:37:01 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 0690c86a2a Document the returns_unicode attribute 2000-08-17 23:15:21 +00:00
Thomas Wouters 5215225ea1 Apply SF patch #101135, adding 'import module as m' and 'from module import
name as n'. By doing some twists and turns, "as" is not a reserved word.

There is a slight change in semantics for 'from module import name' (it will
now honour the 'global' keyword) but only in cases that are explicitly
undocumented.
2000-08-17 22:55:00 +00:00
Thomas Wouters 1d75a79c00 Apply SF patch #101029: call __getitem__ with a proper slice object if there
is no __getslice__ available. Also does the same for C extension types.
Includes rudimentary documentation (it could use a cross reference to the
section on slice objects, I couldn't figure out how to do that) and a test
suite for all Python __hooks__ I could think of, including the new
behaviour.
2000-08-17 22:37:32 +00:00
Fred Drake 68add2e938 Remove an item that's been done. 2000-08-17 22:32:01 +00:00
Fred Drake dd611b0070 A little more text, and some really minor cleanups. 2000-08-17 22:31:23 +00:00
Fred Drake e581bb30c4 Small cleanups, and note when zip() entered the menagerie. 2000-08-17 22:30:30 +00:00
Fred Drake b32aa5ecef Revise the comments about the exceptions module to not refer to source
code; it is not sufficiently readable now that it in written in C, and
is less likely to be available to end users.
2000-08-17 22:29:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 25699f99f4 Martin v. Loewis <martin@loewis.home.cs.tu-berlin.de>:
Document opcodes added to support extended call syntax.
2000-08-17 22:19:26 +00:00

Andrew M. Kuchling 2d2dc9fde5 Add section on list comprehension
Comment out the unwritten XML section
mymalloc.h -> pymem.h
2000-08-17 00:27:06 +00:00
Fred Drake 1aebadf0e5 Ka-Ping Yee <ping@lfw.org>:
Further examples of list comprehensions.
2000-08-16 21:44:03 +00:00
Fred Drake 5772c86816 Document socket.getfqdn(). 2000-08-16 14:21:42 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 2337f5519a Mention setdefault() method for dicts 2000-08-16 02:52:37 +00:00
Thomas Wouters caa658d047 Apply SF patch #101151, by Peter S-K, which fixes smtplib's passing of the
'helo' and 'ehlo' message, and exports the 'make_fqdn' function. This
function should be moved to socket.py, if that module ever gets a Python
wrapper.
2000-08-15 19:30:36 +00:00
Fred Drake d341579178 Fix error made in applying Thomas's patch. 2000-08-15 18:44:10 +00:00
Fred Drake a1e214a1ed Thomas Wouters <thomas@xs4all.net>:
Update the grammar to reflect the most recent changes to list
comprehensions.
2000-08-15 17:54:49 +00:00
Fred Drake d066f6d780 Fix markup bug that prevented formatting.
Adjusted some markup for consistency with the rest of the documentation
and creation of the proper index entries.
2000-08-15 17:47:09 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 0be4346da6 Describe the b2a_hex() and a2b_hex() functions (a.k.a. hexlify() and
unhexlify() respectively).
2000-08-15 06:08:00 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 4ef4be53ac Added description of the md5.hexdigest() method. 2000-08-15 06:00:28 +00:00

PyErr_Restore().
2000-08-15 04:36:16 +00:00
Fred Drake a2b6ad6e27 Guido pointed out that all names in the sys module have no underscore, 2000-08-15 04:24:43 +00:00
Fred Drake 6bd8b252e0 For bug reporting, point to the SourceForge bug tracker instead of the
old Jitterbug interface.
2000-08-14 16:35:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 68e2915fc7 Document the byte_order value in the sys module. 2000-08-14 15:47:30 +00:00
Fred Drake 107b9679c4 Document the range type, as suggested by Denis S. Otkidach
<den@analyt.chem.msu.ru>.
2000-08-14 15:37:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 510d08bfe4 In the section on the "Very High Level Layer", address concerns brought up
by Edward K. Ream <edream@users.sourceforge.net> about FILE* values and
incompatible C libraries in dynamically linked extensions.  It is not clear
(to me) how realistic the issue is, but it is better documented than not.

This closes SourceForge bug #111520.
2000-08-14 02:50:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 81f7eb6c6b Fix some markup errors that prevented formatting, and one that didn't. 2000-08-12 20:08:04 +00:00
Skip Montanaro 803d6e5451 list comprehensions. see
http://sourceforge.net/patch/?func=detailpatch&patch_id=100654&group_id=5470

for details.
2000-08-12 18:09:51 +00:00
Fred Drake 4ca744c70e Added information for PyEval_EvalCode().
Fixed a couple of typos (new references are represented by "+1", not "1").
2000-08-12 03:39:47 +00:00
Fred Drake 4de96c2fd8 Added Marc-Andre Lemburg's documentation for string methods, with some
massaging for markup consistency.  This closes SourceForge patch #101063.

Added Unicode strings and buffer objects to the list of sequence types.

Small markup nits elsewhere.
2000-08-12 03:36:23 +00:00
Thomas Wouters 0be5aab04d Merge UNPACK_LIST and UNPACK_TUPLE into a single UNPACK_SEQUENCE, since they
did the same anyway.

I'm not sure what to do with Tools/compiler/compiler/* -- that isn't part of
distutils, is it ? Should it try to be compatible with old bytecode version ?
2000-08-11 22:15:52 +00:00
Fred Drake a8d7341f63 PyRun_InteractiveOne(),
PyRun_InteractiveLoop():  Added descriptions.

PyExc_WindowsError:  Added to list of standard exceptions and added note
                     about the right preprocessor symbol to use to protect
                     code that uses it.
2000-08-11 20:39:29 +00:00
Fred Drake 46479d3740 Some minor clarifications and added some index entries. 2000-08-11 20:34:27 +00:00
Fred Drake 3ac977e39c O_BINARY: Documented this constant; omission noted by David Ascher.
access():  Corrected availability statement; error pointed out by
           Tim Peters.
2000-08-11 20:19:51 +00:00
Fred Drake 241551c16c do_env_cfuncdesc(): Push as much of the generated HTML into one place
as possible for better readability.  Revise a comment.
2000-08-11 20:04:19 +00:00
Fred Drake a8e484c8f5 getopt(): revise description of long_options parameter slightly so it will
be less confusing; add a paragraph separation so that comments about
	the options and long_options parameters don't have references that
	are easily misinterpreted.

Adjust the interactive examples to not need the string module.

Add an example showing how the module is commonly used in a script.
2000-08-11 19:55:06 +00:00
Fred Drake 7932ed0ac4 Added material about documenting packages, so that the use of module
markup for packages is clear.
2000-08-11 17:37:33 +00:00
Fred Drake f40706375a Include the document dependencies earlier so that documents are rebuilt
when they need to be.

Fred Drake 7d45d34ed7 ANY becomes void, to reflect the requirement for ANSI C. 2000-08-11 17:07:32 +00:00
Peter Schneider-Kamp 10e1bf2f64 remove all occurence of math.rint() from the sources
(and yes, "Currintly" also counts <0.5 wink>)
2000-08-10 04:23:30 +00:00
Eric S. Raymond 65983372f0 More on noutrefresh. 2000-08-09 21:49:31 +00:00

Fred Drake 3fe9a98c95 Correct markup error. 2000-08-09 14:37:05 +00:00
Fred Drake fc1f9229f4 Correct version number at which the curses.ascii module was introduced. 2000-08-09 14:36:11 +00:00
Fred Drake ec4b2af6bb Fix a few markup errors and lots of small consistency issues.
Add "See also" link to curses.wrapper module from curses module.
2000-08-09 14:34:48 +00:00
Fred Drake cb0fc9c2ce fix_font(): Handle one more case for the magical first column of tables. 2000-08-09 13:45:04 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 8141cf5c76 Barry's patch to document the new setdefault() method. Slightly
clarified the summary for default() in the table to indicate the side
effect.
2000-08-08 16:15:49 +00:00
Vladimir Marangozov f9d20c3786 Neil Schemenauer: GC enable(), disable(), isenabled() interface.
Small stylistic changes by VM:
