Neal Norwitz 77e42fff31 George Yoshida points out that the special characters

So remove "\&".

Fredrik Lundh d3188639c3 markup glitch (spotted by George Yoshida) 2006-02-28 12:11:57 +00:00
Martin v. Löwis 40d8459dbf Add generation of the version. 2006-02-28 00:30:54 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c2e20744b2 PEP 343 -- the with-statement.
This was started by Mike Bland and completed by Guido
(with help from Neal).

This still needs a __future__ statement added;
Thomas is working on Michael's patch for that aspect.

There's a small amount of code cleanup and refactoring
in ast.c, compile.c and ceval.c (I fixed the lltrace
behavior when EXT_POP is used -- however I had to make
lltrace a static global).

Martin v. Löwis 577b5b960d Create _ast module.

Guido van Rossum 1968ad32cd - Patch 1433928:
- The copy module now "copies" function objects (as atomic objects).
  - dict.__getitem__ now looks for a __missing__ hook before raising
    KeyError.
  - Added a new type, defaultdict, to the collections module.
    This uses the new __missing__ hook behavior added to dict (see above).

Georg Brandl 868e704e27 Document "multifile" as deprecated. 2006-02-21 19:23:49 +00:00
Tim Peters d34350e47e At Brian Wichmann's request, added words warning against
using the old Wichmann-Hill generator,  Also pointed to
a newer version of his generator, and weakened the claim
about what jumpahead() does now.

Note sure I got the LaTeX entirely correct for \seeurl.
If it's broken, please fix it ;-)

Bugfix candidate!  (These changes make just as much
sense for 2.4.)

Thomas Wouters bbdf6078f6 Fix broken example of csv.reader use (it returns an iterator, which isn't
indexable) by using the same 'for' construct as all other examples. (Also
emphasizes that reading from a random iterable is no different than reading
from a file.)

Armin Rigo a871ef2b3e Added the cProfile module.
Based on lsprof (patch #1212837) by Brett Rosen and Ted Czotter.
With further editing by Michael Hudson and myself.
History in svn repo: http://codespeak.net/svn/user/arigo/hack/misc/lsprof

* Module/_lsprof.c is the internal C module, Lib/cProfile.py a wrapper.
* pstats.py updated to display cProfile's caller/callee timings if available.
* setup.py and NEWS updated.
* documentation updates in the profiler section:
   - explain the differences between the three profilers that we have now
   - profile and cProfile can use a unified documentation, like (c)Pickle
   - mention that hotshot is "for specialized usage" now
   - removed references to the "old profiler" that no longer exists
* test updates:
   - extended test_profile to cover delicate cases like recursion
   - added tests for the caller/callee displays
   - added test_cProfile, performing the same tests for cProfile
* TO-DO:
   - cProfile gives a nicer name to built-in, particularly built-in methods,
     which could be backported to profile.
   - not tested on Windows recently!

Neal Norwitz 0e6bc8c260 Patch #1407135, bug #1424041, make mmap.mmap(-1, length) work the same
on both Unix (SVR4 and BSD) and Windows.  Restores behaviour of passing -1
for anonymous memory on Unix.  Use MAP_ANONYMOUS instead of _ANON since
the latter is deprecated according to Linux (gentoo) man pages.

Should we continue to allow mmap.mmap(0, length) to work on Windows?
0 is a valid fd.

Will backport bugfix portions.
