Revised new macros after discussion with Guido: Always use full names of
...
semantic concepts.
Added two new ones (not discussed with Guido:
\constant{}: Markup for constants defined in Python modules.
\cfunction{}: Markup for C functions; these should probably be distinguished
by font, but are not at this time (since they're typically \code{} at
this point).

Simple documentation of the copy_reg module.

Guido, you should probably look at this. The pickle documentation is out of

__safe_for_unpickling__ attribute.

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.

\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.)

Consistency: Always use trailing "()" for function and method names in text.

Change questionable text about CORBA to definate text about XDR; "CORBA" isn't
