Fred Drake 607f802886 round(): Mark the second (optional) parameter as optional, since it's
described that way.

Fred Drake 637af13dca There is no <ISINPUT> element, just <ISINDEX>. ;-) 1998-08-21 20:02:06 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 42db27fedc Added an example that uses signal.alarm() to time out an os.open() that
takes too long. This example relies on the fact that raising an
    exception in a signal handler causes the exception to be re-raised
    when the main line of the program resumes execution.  Is this guaranteed
    in CPython, or is this something that just happens to work by accident?

Also fixed a typo.

Fred Drake a0e4b78233 img_tag(): For \n to be interpreted as a newline, the string must use double
quote, not single quotes.  Ugh.

Fred Drake 062bc6e598 Do the magic to use the new buttons (with shorter names!) instead of the old
ones.  Get the <IMG> width & height right.  New design for the navigation

Fred Drake 697c1c7325 Some minor updates. 1998-08-12 17:13:28 +00:00
Fred Drake eb7fe4f5a1 Massive cleanup: Use Makefiles in subdirs properly, move most of the
detailed build rules to the subdirs.  Allow pretty much every useful target
to be built directly from the top dir (no change in output location).
1998-08-12 17:08:37 +00:00
Fred Drake 07b12f2497 Re-written to actually perform the conversion instead of using a sub-make
with the parent Makefile.  Will also force the auxillary files to be
created if they need to be.

Fred Drake 3d865424a7 New makefile which only contains the source dependencies specific to each

Fred Drake 9f7adc4f22 Get the <IMG> sizes right for the navigation buttons. 1998-08-11 19:33:38 +00:00
Fred Drake a69ada66d0 Ok, blank.pbm is free to go.
The rest of these are new or replaced.  The buttons are now all the same
width.  They have the transparency set right.  They still need the attention
of a designer.  But they work, and we have a real button for the Modules
Index.

Fred Drake c83d7cac07 Remove files we never used; l2h would only use these if you use the
special "html" package, which we don't and won't.
1998-08-11 18:31:35 +00:00
Fred Drake af06a0b4ee Use Perl's rename() function instead of system(); there's no need for two
additional processes for each name change!
