2000-10-10 20:23:10 +00:00

require authenication.  This is an implementation limitation rather than
required behavior, and may be fixed in the future.

This closes SourceForge bug #111725.
2000-08-31 17:23:35 +00:00
Fred Drake dfca4dc503 Revised documentation relevant to SourceForge patch #100837
(simplify making HTTP POST requests).

Added documentation of URLopener.version and how it can be overridden.
2000-08-25 05:13:42 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3d0c77b37c Addresses the other half of Bug #112634 -- the documentation suggested
that you can set self.version *after* calling the base class __init__.
In fact it must be done *before*.

(Fred, maybe the version class variable should be documented now?)
2000-08-24 16:20:32 +00:00
Fred Drake 9fa4d61bcc Moshe Zadka <moshez@math.huji.ac.il>:

2000-08-24 01:06:40 +00:00

This time, it was reported by Skip.
2000-07-28 13:51:27 +00:00
Thomas Wouters f8316638af Rob W. W. Hooft's spelling fixes for the Library Reference. I hope
SourceForge doesn't choke on this batch :-)

I'm not entirely sure this is 100% correct. The patch changes an
\index{persistency} to \index{presistence}, and I don't know what \index{}
does. But it seems to do so persi--er, consistently, so I hope it isn't a
problem.

Fred Drake 6c16019136 Fixed typo noted by Guido Kollerie <gkoller@cs.vu.nl> in example code. 2000-05-30 14:39:45 +00:00

Fred Drake cce1090d49 Change "\," to just "," in function signatures. This is easier to maintain,

macros.

Fred Drake 6ef871ce2f Logical markup.
Lots of nits in both.

Change "\renewcommand{\indexsubitem}{(...)}" to "\setindexsubitem{(...)}"
everywhere.

Some other minor nits that I happened to come across.
1998-02-13 06:58:54 +00:00
