Walter Dörwald 3fa932f7ed Fix typo (from SF bug #1086127). 2004-12-15 23:44:18 +00:00
Tim Peters 7f13cfa674 os.walk(): Changed the "sum of bytes consumed by files" example to use 
a generator expression instead of a listcomp.

Not a backport candidate (genexps are new in 2.4).
 2004-11-22 16:53:46 +00:00
Tim Peters 919a3b40f9 SF bug 1071087: os.walk example for deleting a full tree is sometime wrong. 
Clarify that the example assumes no links are present; the point of the
example is to illustrate a need for topdown=False, not to wrestle with
platform-dependent link convolutions.

Also spell os.path.join() out in full, instead of using a shortcut import.
The bug reporter was confused by that too, and it's clearer this way.

Bugfix candidate; but I don't intend to backport it.

Tim Peters 2cf5e1920b Point out some platform vagaries in stat() and utime(). 
Bugfix candidate (the vagaries aren't new <wink>), but I don't intend to
backport this.

Johannes Gijsbers 9fc9789a0d Document that on Unix, the 'cmd' argument to the os.popen2/3/4 and 
popen2.popen2/3/4 functions can be a sequence. All texts are a variation on the
following:

On \UNIX, \var{cmd} may be a sequence, in which case arguments will be passed
directly to the program without shell intervention (as with
\function{os.spawnv()}). If \var{cmd} is a string it will be passed to the shell
(as with \function{os.system()}).

Tim Peters d6ef19309d SF bugs 996748: os.environ documentation should indicate unreliability 
Clarifed that os.environ is captured once; emphasized that it's better
to assign to os.environ than to call putenv() directly (the putenv()
docs said so, but the environ docs didn't).

Neal Norwitz 76aa2eff4e Get doc to build (add missing backslash) 2004-07-19 01:39:54 +00:00
Tim Peters de8332171a SF bug 990749: os constants missing 
A LaTeX comment identified the 6 os.O_XXX constants the docs claimed
are available on Windows but aren't.  The bug report listed the same 6.
Split these non-Windows constants into a different table with a possibly
correct "Availability:" claim.

Tim Peters dbaf04ead6 Straighten out the docs for os.system(); the Unix and Windows behaviors

Tim Peters 5501b5e3d7 SF bug 728097: tmpnam problems on windows 2.3b, breaks test.test_os. 
tmpnam() appears essentially useless on Windows, and it finally broke
the test for Irmen de Jong.  Read the long new comment in test_tmpnam()
for details.  Since the MS implementation is insane, it might be good
if we supplied a different implementation.

Bugfix candidate.
