Fred Drake 73a973bf8d Always mark variables in the "Notes" following a table the same way as in the
tables:  \var{}

Add a couple of index entries to the File Objects section.

Fred Drake cbe50f4829 Removed bogus index entry for the type() built-in.
Marked title of the Python Reference Manual as \emph{}, like other Python
manual titles.

Fred Drake 311c19688d Proposed new macros: see comments. These are not yet used.
These are intended to support semantic markup.  There are a number
	of places in the documentation where the exact meaning of an
	indentifier marked \code{} in the running text is ambiguous (could
	be a module or a class, a function or a method, etc.).  These are
	intended to clarify the intent of the identifier for processing
	applications and more intelligent style processing.

Fred Drake c520b695fe The soundex module is built-in, not standard.

Fred Drake dd17d1ce62 ni is a standard module, not a built-in module. The only other reference to
it already got it right.

Fred Drake bac354cd80 Consistency: (Yes, I know this section is not formatted by default, and
isn't likely to be of much interest these days....)

{\tt ...} ==> \code{...}

Added \label{module-blat} for the two supporting modules.

Added index entries for referred-to modules.

Guido van Rossum 57d9f2e6ec Renamed Jim's PyErr_[JF]Format() to cPickle_ErrFormat(). It's not a
standard Python API function so it should not have a Py prefix.

Guido van Rossum 79a6a9e882 Removed a confusing note about coercions and __r*__ operators. 1998-01-19 23:16:55 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 46503922a0 Various updates to the effect that the group argument is always optional.
Also documented that groups() now always returns a tuple.

Guido van Rossum 7d4ecb8785 Add note about dropping latex 2.09 compatibility. 1998-01-19 23:10:21 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c567b8176a Revamped, to match py_compile.py:
- added docstrings
- support option to specify a different purported directory name
- reindented with 4 spaces
1998-01-19 23:07:55 +00:00
Guido van Rossum f7edadbc58 Add Gopher to list of protocols that support query strings. 1998-01-19 22:27:21 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e7579624ef Fix bad new bug in ftp code -- the test for existing file using NLST
would set the transfer to text mode instead of the specified mode.
1998-01-19 22:26:54 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ca99c2ce75 Fix to ismount(). Can't remember who told me this. 1998-01-19 22:25:59 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 29c4688659 Patch by Tim O'Malley for servers that send a response looking just like
HTTP/1.x 200
instead of
    HTTP/1.x 200 OK

Guido van Rossum 42e8e5d164 Protect PyErr_Format format string argument from overflow. 1998-01-19 22:23:08 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 0d6b49eff2 Protect PyErr_Format format string argument from overflow (ironically,
the error was about a bad format string :-).
1998-01-19 22:22:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum db9351643d Instead of "attribute-less object", issue an error message that
contains the type of the object and name of the attribute.

Guido van Rossum cf57d8b8c9 tok_nextc() should return unsigned characters, to avoid mistaking
'\377' for EOF.
1998-01-19 22:07:46 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d29806c37e Instead of a single exists(), differentiate between files, modules,
executable files, and directories.  When expecting a module, we also
look for the .pyc or .pyo file.
1998-01-19 22:06:22 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 73bacfc3d7 Add unistd.h for isatty(). 1998-01-19 22:05:22 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3dacdc306e Add LOG_SYSLOG if defined. 1998-01-19 22:05:08 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 15af20a337 Better #ifdefs for NetBSD, taking into account that at least on netBSD
1.3, dlopen() etc. are fully implemented, including dlerror().
From Jaromir Dolecek and Ty Sarna.
1998-01-19 22:03:52 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 4cc462e85b It seems obvious that when Py_Finalize() decides that there's nothing
to do, it should not call sys.exitfunc either...
1998-01-19 22:00:38 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d2dd9a8b7f Some patches by Lars Marius Garshol:
- fix type_to_name(); it never worked
- add path_to_selector()
add path_to_datatype_name()
1998-01-19 21:59:48 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 758eec0172 Rewritten PyImport_Cleanup() and its helper, clear_carefully(). They
now implement the following finalization strategy.

1. Whenever this code deletes a module, its directory is cleared
   carefully, as follows:
   - set all names to None that begin with exactly one underscore
   - set all names to None that don't begin with two underscores
   - clear the directory

2. Modules are deleted in the following order:
   - modules with a reference count of 1, except __builtin__ or __sys__
   - repeat until no more are found with a reference count of 1
   - __main__ if it's still there
   - all remaining modules except __builtin__ or sys
   - sys
   _ __builtin__

Fred Drake 8095ebfc4a Consistency: Replaced 4 {\it ...} with \emph{...}. 1998-01-19 04:02:41 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 63566e2ef2 Added docstrings.
Added an optional third parameter giving the purported filename for
error messages from the module.

Append a newline to the code string if needed.

Fred Drake b6ce6427e8 Consistency: In two places, change {\it ...} to \emph{...}. 1998-01-19 02:51:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 53396f66c1 Consistency: In two \section{} headers, change {\tt ...} to \sectcode{...}. 1998-01-19 02:48:37 +00:00
Fred Drake 9e24309bb5 \funcitem{}, \dataitem{}, \excitem{}: Removed obsolete macros; there are no
longer used anywhere.  Use the {*desc} environments instead.

\var{}:  Ensure that the argument is always set in roman italic, in case an
	 alternate font is being used for code.  These keeps the result of
	 \var{} consistent.

Some minor changes to allow easier exploration of alternate fonts for code in
the running text.  Haven't changed the selected font; I haven't found one that
has everything required!  (The best non-monospaced font so far was missing
the <, >, and | characters, or at least had them at the wrong locations.  It
also allowed confusion between upper-case I and lower-case L.)
1998-01-18 05:09:54 +00:00
Fred Drake b660b63edf Use \emph{} for all references to the other documents, not just some of them. 1998-01-16 16:34:34 +00:00
Jack Jansen 20989e834d Mods by Bill Bedford
- Use internal version of finder class so we don't drag in finder
  tools
- error -1704 also ignored during arg unpack
- Use Scriptable Text Editor for example
1998-01-16 14:40:10 +00:00
Jack Jansen 5b0533d9ca Addition by Bill Bedford: Ordinal and NOrdinal classes so we can
implement "every", etc.
1998-01-16 14:38:10 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 48b805c07c SO_REUSEPORT should be SO_REUSEADDR.
I found this in a mail of two and a half years ago from Yusuf Goolamabbas.

Fred Drake af8a015c93 Consistency: "{\bf ...}" ==> "\strong{...}"

	      Not at all sure what to do with "{\rm ...}".
	      Leaving it for now.

Always include the comma *inside* the \optional{} markup!
