R. David Murray 96fd54eaec #4661: add bytes parsing and generation to email (email version bump to 5.1.0)
The work on this is not 100% complete, but everything is present to
allow real-world testing of the code.  The only remaining major todo
item is to (hopefully!) enhance the handling of non-ASCII bytes in headers
converted to unicode by RFC2047 encoding them rather than replacing them with
'?'s.

Brian Curtin 1771b54bed Implement #8521. Added named argument handling to winreg's CreateKeyEx,
DeleteKeyEx, and OpenKeyEx.

Note that CKE and DKE are new functions for 3.2 so I didn't give them a
versionchanged because of the existing versionadded. OpenKeyEx already
existed so it gets a versionchanged tag.

Brian Curtin e8e4b3bfd6 #9808. Implement os.getlogin for Windows, completed by Jon Anglin.
The test is semi-dumb, it just makes sure something comes back since we
don't have a solid source to validate the returned login. We can't be 100%
sure that the USERNAME env var will always match what os.getlogin() returns,
so we don't make any specific assertion there.

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc ba117ef7e9 #4617: Previously it was illegal to delete a name from the local
namespace if it occurs as a free variable in a nested block.  This limitation
of the compiler has been lifted, and a new opcode introduced (DELETE_DEREF).

This sample was valid in 2.6, but fails to compile in 3.x without this change::

   >>> def f():
   ...     def print_error():
   ...        print(e)
   ...     try:
   ...        something
   ...     except Exception as e:
   ...        print_error()
   ...        # implicit "del e" here


This sample has always been invalid in Python, and now works::

   >>> def outer(x):
   ...     def inner():
   ...        return x
   ...     inner()
   ...     del x

There is no need to bump the PYC magic number: the new opcode is used
for code that did not compile before.

Raymond Hettinger 7fefaffcc2 Clean-up example of using fileinput as a context manager. 2010-09-05 23:50:32 +00:00
Éric Araujo 4234ad4266 Fix typos and wording in what’s new 3.2.
- The entry about shutil.copytree is just a revert of r84524 which
looks like an unfinished edition.
- The use of gender-neutral language (s/his/their/) removes the
implicit assumption that programmer == male (change agreed by Antoine).
- Other changes should be uncontroversial fixes.

I haven’t rewrapped under 80 lines to keep the diffs readable; I’ll
rewrap later.

by the new (and simpler) DUP_TOP_TWO.  Performance isn't changed, but
