Neal Norwitz	488609e43a	SF #642236, optparse LaTeX docs by Johannes Gijsbers	2003-01-06 16:51:37 +00:00
Fred Drake	11f89b75e1	Strike any hint that from-import-* could ever be reasonable; it's a ... vile abomination and should be eradicated!	2003-01-06 16:38:10 +00:00
Fred Drake	2e3ae21060	Fix some nits Guido brought up last August: ... - give subsection pages nicer names - shorten some really long table cells; table cells can't wrap in the typeset version of the documentation	2003-01-06 15:50:32 +00:00
Fred Drake	2b0a3d33f8	Fix markup so this will format again.	2003-01-06 15:03:11 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger	9f5b07dd92	SF bug #592859: os.chmod is underdocumented ... Document constants for permission bits.	2003-01-06 13:31:26 +00:00
Neal Norwitz	b9ef4aea5e	SF #651082, tarfile module implementation from Lars Gustäbel	2003-01-05 23:19:43 +00:00
Neal Norwitz	6d23b170cf	Fix a typo	2003-01-05 22:20:51 +00:00
Tim Peters	75a6e3bd1a	datetime_from_timet_and_us(): ignore leap seconds if the platform ... localtime()/gmtime() insists on delivering them, + associated doc changes. Redid the docs for datetimtez.astimezone().	2003-01-04 18:17:36 +00:00
Tim Peters	adf642038e	A new implementation of astimezone() that does what we agreed on in all ... cases, plus even tougher tests of that. This implementation follows the correctness proof very closely, and should also be quicker (yes, I wrote the proof before the code, and the code proves the proof <wink>).	2003-01-04 06:03:15 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger	69bf8f3f4e	SF bug #655271: Slightly modify locals() doc ... Clarify the operation of locals().	2003-01-04 02:16:22 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger	2ca243368f	SF bug #651149: Review libshelve.tex when possible ... Minor fixes to markup, spelling, parameter names, and abbreviations.	2003-01-04 01:53:38 +00:00
Tim Peters	8827d0c338	Replaced the flawed "local time" example tzinfo class with the guts ... of Guido's later Local.py (from the datetime sandbox).	2003-01-03 22:26:57 +00:00
Tim Peters	397301eccb	The tzinfo methods utcoffset() and dst() must return a timedelta object ... (or None) now. In 2.3a1 they could also return an int or long, but that was an unhelpfully redundant leftover from an earlier version wherein they couldn't return a timedelta. TOOWTDI.	2003-01-02 21:28:08 +00:00
Skip Montanaro	4abd5f0fce	Allow list sort's comparison function to explicitly be None. See SF patch ... 661092.	2003-01-02 20:51:08 +00:00
Tim Peters	710fb1548a	astimezone() internals: if utcoffset() returns a duration, complain if ... dst() returns None (instead of treating that as 0).	2003-01-02 19:35:54 +00:00
Neal Norwitz	e149798c7f	Add some version info for new methods and class	2003-01-02 15:32:00 +00:00
Fred Drake	74bcac4cae	- documented Ellipsis, NotImplemented ... - minor markup changes - indented for consistency with newer content	2003-01-02 05:13:51 +00:00
Fred Drake	45e482fd3d	Document that apply() is deprecated. See: ... http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2003-January/031556.html	2003-01-02 04:54:04 +00:00
Tim Peters	f36151556f	A quicker astimezone() implementation, rehabilitating an earlier ... suggestion from Guido, along with a formal correctness proof of the trickiest bit. The intricacy of the proof reveals how delicate this is, but also how robust the conclusion: correctness doesn't rely on dst() returning +- one hour (not all real time zones do!), it only relies on: 1. That dst() returns a (any) non-zero value if and only if daylight time is in effect. and 2. That the tzinfo subclass implements a consistent notion of time zone. The meaning of "consistent" was a hidden assumption, which is now an explicit requirement in the docs. Alas, it's an unverifiable (by the datetime implementation) requirement, but so it goes.	2003-01-01 21:51:37 +00:00
Skip Montanaro	0233bd9c7d	mention built-in constants.	2003-01-01 20:37:14 +00:00
Skip Montanaro	1f041e7aa8	process libconsts.tex	2003-01-01 20:34:00 +00:00
Skip Montanaro	17804b1df4	new section - builtin constants	2003-01-01 20:33:38 +00:00
Fred Drake	0f8e543159	- use classdesc where we can (for better indexing) ... - more style consistency crud	2002-12-31 18:31:48 +00:00
Fred Drake	436eadd455	General style conformance. Markup some unmarked constructs.	2002-12-31 18:13:11 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger	f621232c0d	Use funcdesc instead of classdesc to be consistent with out sections.	2002-12-31 17:24:50 +00:00
Fred Drake	e2c649126e	Further cleanup of exceptions. All interpolation-related exceptions ... now derive from InterpolationError, which is not raised directly (only subclasses get raised). This matches what the docs already said.	2002-12-31 17:23:27 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger	6222958500	Spelling fix	2002-12-31 16:37:03 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger	cbd6cd2312	Add markup for time object. ... Cleanup whitespace. Fix unbalanced parenthesis.	2002-12-31 16:30:49 +00:00
Tim Peters	9532298c82	Removed the now-untrue (or soon-to-be untrue) part of the astimezone() ... docs. Replaced it with an XXX block, because the hoped-for treatment of DST endcases remains unclear (Guido doesn't really like raising an exception when it's impossible to deliver a correct result, but so far I have no way in hand to consistently deliver a defined incorrect result either).	2002-12-31 16:01:47 +00:00
Eric S. Raymond	2852cbaf26	Document the new ,netrc awareness in nntplib.	2002-12-31 15:28:44 +00:00
Fred Drake	f91b4619e0	Barry raised reasonable objections to the macro name \mimeheader, so ... we'll simply revert to \mailheader since there's no other good name.	2002-12-31 15:23:09 +00:00
Fred Drake	f14730a49a	- correct the deprecation markups so this formats again ... - some minor cleanups	2002-12-31 15:10:49 +00:00

Guido van Rossum	2969233f9a	Add dummy_thread[ing] sections and reference these from libthread[ing].	2002-12-30 22:34:10 +00:00
Guido van Rossum	ad50ca91a9	Brett Cannon's dummy_thread and dummy_threading modules (SF patch ... 622537), with some nitpicking editorial changes.	2002-12-30 22:30:22 +00:00
Fred Drake	a37e5cce4b	We're using strictly American spellings, so there's no diaresis over ... the i in naive. More markup fixups.	2002-12-30 21:26:42 +00:00
Tim Peters	bad8ff089a	A step on the way to making tzinfo classes writable by mortals: get rid ... of the timetz case. A tzinfo method will always see a datetimetz arg, or None, now. In the former case, it's still possible that it will get a datetimetz argument belonging to a different timezone. That will get fixed next.	2002-12-30 20:52:32 +00:00
Fred Drake	9bdeee492a	Clean up a table so it passes formatting.	2002-12-30 20:35:32 +00:00
