specifically.

Neal Norwitz 6b35370c65 Update docs for bool changes by Guido around April 6 2002-04-09 18:15:00 +00:00
Fred Drake c37b65ee10 Clean up some markup cruft. A number of the macros that take no
parameters (like \UNIX) are commonly entered using an empty group to
separate the markup from a following inter-word space; this is not
needed when the next character is punctuation, or the markup is the
last thing in the enclosing group.  These cases were marked
inconsistently; the empty group is now *only* used when needed.

Guido van Rossum 3c28863e08 Partial patch from SF #452266, by Jason Petrone.
This changes Pythread_start_thread() to return the thread ID, or -1
for an error.  (It's technically an incompatible API change, but I
doubt anyone calls it.)

Fred Drake 43b89b637f Noted by Guido:
Note in the "Caveats" section should refer to the exit() function, not
exit_thread().

Fred Drake 02e8c0fd2d Nits. Reference to signal module becomes a hyperlink. 1999-04-21 18:01:14 +00:00
Fred Drake d61975e179 Minor markup nit to ease conversion processing. 1998-11-30 16:26:50 +00:00
Fred Drake 295da24eaf New section header style.
Fix up a few synopses.
1998-08-10 19:42:37 +00:00
Fred Drake b91e934cf1 Adjusted to use the new module synopsis support macros. 1998-07-23 17:59:49 +00:00
Fred Drake 91e5211bbf Added \deprecated to exit_thread() function.
Reflects Guido's revision.
1998-07-02 19:33:12 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 73d8bff44d Document optional kwargs argument to start_new_thread(). Also
document new LockType and reverse the preference for exit()
vs. exit_thread() -- exit() is now preferred and exit_thread() is
obsolete.

Fred Drake 3a0351cf85 Remove all uses of \sectcode; we can now use logical markup everywhere. 1998-04-04 07:23:21 +00:00
Fred Drake d678cb7a6c Logical markup. 1998-04-03 06:35:54 +00:00
Fred Drake cce1090d49 Change "\," to just "," in function signatures. This is easier to maintain,
works better with LaTeX2HTML, and allows some simplification of the python.sty
macros.
1998-03-17 06:33:25 +00:00
Fred Drake 1947991c2f Remove all \bcode / \ecode cruft; this is no longer needed. See previous
checkin of myformat.sty.

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

Some other minor nits that I happened to come across.

Fred Drake 1624a507e6 Oops, missed a \POSIX{} in an index entry. 1998-02-09 22:12:28 +00:00
Fred Drake 65b32f7f74 Consistently use \POSIX{} to denote POSIX. There were at least two different
ways to do it previously (not counting module names).
1998-02-09 20:27:12 +00:00
Fred Drake 61b0452626 Added a bunch of "concept" index entries.
Use trailing "()" on function names in running text.
1998-01-20 05:52:23 +00:00
Fred Drake af8a015c93 Consistency: "{\bf ...}" ==> "\strong{...}"
"{\em ...}" ==> "\emph{...}"

	      Not at all sure what to do with "{\rm ...}".
	      Leaving it for now.

Guido van Rossum 3572d3718b Updated platform specific notes (it is now more common to have this)
added some caveats.
1997-08-14 19:51:26 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e47da0ae04 AMK's megapatch:
* \bcode, \ecode added everywhere
	* \label{module-foo} added everywhere
	* A few \seealso sections added.
	* Indentation fixed inside verbatim in lib*tex files

Guido van Rossum 96628a90c4 typos, layout and other small things 1995-04-10 11:34:00 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 470be14c8a mass changes; fix titles; add examples; correct typos; clarifications;
unified style; etc.

Guido van Rossum 6bb1adc7ee small changes by Soren Larsen 1995-03-13 10:03:32 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b8b264b165 * Doc/libfuncs.tex: don't use $math$ in description of pow(x,y,z);
describe tuple()

	* Doc/libposixfile.tex: use tableiii instead of tableii, so
	partparse will work again (I know, chicken!)

	* Doc/libthread.tex: Added get_ident(); updated text on module
	availability

	* Doc/myformat.perl: Added sub do_cmd_Cpp
