Fred Drake 984920bbad Make the embedded hyperlinks work. 2003-09-28 19:03:36 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 43b5e40795 * Fix markup. 
* Fix entry order:
  -  >>> before ...
  - __slots__ in the S section (like __future__ is in the F section)

Need to test the repaired(?) link to Guido's webpage.

Still needs to have the module reference links made relative to
the module directory instead of the tut directory.  That will
require Fred's magic touch.

Fred Drake d4a1419f53 Lots of markup corrections. Some are minor, but others are not: the 
contents of an \item should not be enclosed in a group!

Guido van Rossum 46d3dc37e4 - New function sys.exc_clear() clears the current exception. This is 
rarely needed, but can sometimes be useful to release objects
  referenced by the traceback held in sys.exc_info()[2].  (SF patch
  #693195.)  Thanks to Kevin Jacobs!
 2003-03-01 03:20:41 +00:00
Fred Drake d0c7137c8b Chapter titles that get split over multiple lines in the typeset 
formats can't have whitespace after the last non-blank character (bug
in LaTeX?); fix up a couple of instances of this.

Update an email address.

Fred Drake 55ad7f84a4 Completely revise markup for the list of list methods; the new markup matches

Closes SF bug #567127.
