Ezio Melotti ab9149dc8a Group the Windows entries in getfilesystemencoding doc, move the win 9x one at the bottom of the list and fix some markup. 2010-04-29 16:07:20 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling fb759a25f2 Fix doubled 'the'. 
Markup fixes to use :exc:, :option: in a few places.
  (Glitch: unittest.main's -c ends up a link to the Python
  interpreter's -c option.  Should we skip using :option: for that
  switch, or disable the auto-linking somehow?)

R. David Murray 1a14d3d169 Issue #7585: use tab between components in unified and context diff headers. 
Instead of spaces between the filename and date (or whatever the string
is that follows the filename, if any) use tabs.  This is what the unix
'diff' command does, for example, and difflib was intended to follow
the 'standard' way of doing diffs.  This improves compatibility with
patch tools.  The docs and examples are also changed to recommended that
the date format used be the ISO 8601 format, which is what modern diff
tools emit by default.

Patch by Anatoly Techtonik.

Raymond Hettinger 34c35b2788 Add subtract() method to collections.Counter() objects. 2010-04-03 10:22:00 +00:00
Brian Curtin e5aa886b44 Implement #1220212. Add os.kill support for Windows. 
os.kill takes one of two newly added signals, CTRL_C_EVENT and
CTRL_BREAK_EVENT, or any integer value. The events are a special case
which work with subprocess console applications which implement a
special console control handler. Any other value but those two will
cause os.kill to use TerminateProcess, outright killing the process.

This change adds win_console_handler.py, which is a script to implement
SetConsoleCtrlHandler and applicable handler function, using ctypes.

subprocess also gets another attribute which is a necessary flag to
creationflags in Popen in order to send the CTRL events.

Brian Curtin e33fa887d3 Implement #7347. Add CreateKeyEx, DeleteKeyEx, and update _winreg tests. 
*ReflectionKey functions used to not be documented or tested, but they are
now sufficiently documented and tested on platforms where they apply.
Additionally, fixed a bug in QueryReflectionKey which was returning an
incorrect value.

All tests pass from XP through Windows 7, on 32 and 64-bit platforms.

fixed so that Decimal and float values that compare equal have equal
hash value.

Steven Bethard e9330e7941 Initial commit of the argparse library, based on argparse 1.1. 
Docs still need some updating to make getopt and optparse match the wording promised in the PEP.
There are also probably a number of :class:ArgumentParser etc. links that could be added to the argparse documentation.

Georg Brandl dc3694bee0 Rename "exc_value" attribute on assertRaises context manager to "exception". 2010-02-07 17:02:22 +00:00
Ronald Oussoren ab3f5cbabd A number of APIs in macostools cannot work in 64-bit mode because they 
use Carbon APIs that aren't available there.

This patch disables tests for the affected entrypoints in macostools and
mentions this in the documentation.

In theory it is possible to replace the implementation by code that does
work in 64-bit mode, but that would require further updates to the Carbon
wrappers because the modern APIs aren't wrapped properly.
