Andrew M. Kuchling b216ab632f Fill out various transcripts and XXX bits, thanks to the WMATA. 
The only missing section is the Nested Scopes section, which has to wait

    that get made or backed out between now and 2.1final, of course...)

Andrew M. Kuchling 791b366f8f Added more changes from /F 2000-07-01 15:04:18 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling fed4f1e9c5 Changes from Moshe: 
- distutils: Windows installers are already working

- string methods: .join() seems to be the concensus, so it should probably
  be docommented

- filecmp.py supersedes cmp, cmpcache and dircmp

- winreg is completely new: _winreg is an adaptation of what used to be in
  win32api, and winreg is a Python implementation which adds OO syntax.
  Perhaps you know that, but the text is misleading.
