Fred Drake 8b88093b95 Re-written mkhowto in Python; this should be at least a little more 
portable.

Several things that had been done by running a python script are now a
matter of importing the right module and running a function with a few
parameters.
 1999-03-03 20:24:30 +00:00
Fred Drake 749f943a6b process(): New function that contains the "orchestration" of the

These changes make this more import-friendly.
 1999-03-03 19:25:56 +00:00
Fred Drake aa99a5071e Be a little more friendly for the generation of the text version: for 
"blank" navigation icons, use ALT="" instead of ALT="blank"; also add
ALIGN=CENTER for the table, to get a slightly better affect in the
text (the table is full-width, so this doesn't change the appearance
when browsing the HTML).
 1999-03-03 16:21:34 +00:00

		      information.

process_all_platformofs():  New function to post-process \platformof macros
	using information collected during the initial pass.

process_python_state():  New function. Call all post-processing functions
	defined in this file to avoid having to have too much knowledge of
	the internals for this stuff in l2hinit.perl.

Fred Drake 43b34da656 extract_tb(): Only describe this function once. Problem reported by 
Jonathan Giddy <jon@dgs.monash.edu.au>.

obnoxious <SPAN CLASS="arabic">...</SPAN> markup.
 1999-02-19 23:04:59 +00:00
Fred Drake df5d50d889 Specify the sizes of H? relative to the normal font size as 
percentages; using "large", "x-large" makes them too big for
some troublemakers.  ;-)

(Not specifying them at all causes some browsers to make them the same
size as normal text.  ;-(  )
 1999-02-19 23:03:04 +00:00

Fred Drake beb27bfef7 Make navigation panels more CSS-friendly. 
Make sure the contents page always has the "table of child links"
turned off; this wasn't being handled properly by latex2html for
"howto" ("article") documents, so just do it ourselves for all
document types.

Fred Drake 4d33e4e1a8 HTMLBASE: New variable. Make it easier to check an "installed" copy 
of the HTML documents using the webcheck target.

When there's not a usable .aux file, use mkdvi.sh --aux instead of
building the .dvi completely.  This makes the most difference for the
library reference.
 1999-02-15 19:29:08 +00:00
Fred Drake efa641c45a Add an optional parameter to make the script run latex only once to

 1999-02-12 19:26:09 +00:00
Fred Drake f7bf3b2b06 Added entry for MimeWriter module. 1999-02-12 19:24:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 15799edd34 Make table headers the same color as the navigation bars so they stand 
out a little better.

Make sure the boxes for the last column of tables always get drawn;
these are often left empty of content when used as a "Notes" column.
They look a little better this way.
 1999-02-12 19:23:17 +00:00
Fred Drake 7a9ed71e95 Moved the navigation-bar background color to a variable. 1999-02-12 19:00:38 +00:00

Fred Drake 2e1ee3eb19 Fix up some routines to coordinate the "indexsubitem" stuff so that 
the subitem text is updated correctly when each module section is
processed.

Print [<modulename>] when we start on \declaremodule so we can more
easily track progress during the library reference.

Fred Drake 72e5a901c2 Remove unnecessary <p> from top navigation bar. 1999-02-10 17:35:41 +00:00
Fred Drake ec5c0b41ae Revert previous change; there's a better way to do it. 1999-02-10 17:08:00 +00:00
Fred Drake 95474f9696 Change the navigation bar to be a little prettier and more consistent 
with the python.org style.
 1999-02-09 18:45:50 +00:00
Fred Drake 446ab75fcf New blank icon to match the others in size & color, with without any 
symbol on it.
 1999-02-09 18:27:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 2d1f81ea22 do_cmd_maketitle(): Small nit in creating the "title page". 1999-02-09 16:03:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 1a4c5392b5 Back out some of the fine tuning; something in all that interacted 
badly in practice and botched the whole thing.  Wasn't obvious when
looking at the local effects (which worked), but completely broke
entire pages.  ;-(
 1999-02-09 15:31:52 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ce67f06491 Update documentation to reflect changes to Queue.py by Tim Peters. 1999-02-08 18:43:13 +00:00
Fred Drake dfb4e24431 Respond to suggestion from "Albert" <hat@se-46.wpa.wtb.tue.nl> to add 
document titles to the list of files.

Also added total page count and a note that comments should be
directed to python-docs@python.org.
 1999-02-05 20:50:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 2ff880e2cf More magic to tighten up a little of the formatting. 1999-02-05 18:31:29 +00:00
Fred Drake f9918f25b1 Minor nit to prevent dropping a space in the HTML generation. 1999-02-05 18:30:49 +00:00
Fred Drake d673d481f5 Document sameopenfile(), samestat(). 1999-02-03 22:31:30 +00:00
Fred Drake 0256c1f453 Document splitdrive(). 
For all split*(), these split path *into* pairs, not split path *in*
pairs.  "Into" can be used for transformations, "in" is for
containment.
 1999-02-03 19:24:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 0c9608cf1b Portability fix for [f]statvfs() return tuple: no longer return the 
f_fsid field, since it's not a scalar on all systems supporting this
call (in particular, it's a tuple of two longs on AIX).  Since it's
not particularly useful, just nuke it.  Adapted the doc strings too.
 1999-02-03 16:32:37 +00:00
Fred Drake dbd37dfcff Remove three items. 1999-02-02 19:03:09 +00:00

Fred Drake 12ba7868e4 Moved posixpath to os.path. 1999-02-02 19:00:37 +00:00
Fred Drake 560bcae0f0 Added posixpath, winsound. 1999-02-02 18:59:58 +00:00
Fred Drake a9b9bf96fe Change this to be os.path. 
Use consistent parameter naming with the os documentation (paths
always named "path" or "path1", "path2"...).
 1999-02-02 18:58:33 +00:00
Fred Drake bb79438d26 This seems to fix a problem with targeting from the indexes. 1999-02-02 18:57:12 +00:00
Fred Drake 2116d983bf Make \versionadded and \versionchanged less prominant -- neither bold 
nor a separate paragraph.
 1999-02-02 18:02:48 +00:00
Fred Drake d0bceeeb59 Move \versionadded macros to end of descriptions. 1999-02-02 18:00:40 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 09da65ef2f Patch by Sjoerd Mullender to placate /F: 
Clarified (hopefully :-) the documentation of elements and attributes
variables.
 1999-02-02 17:55:12 +00:00
Fred Drake dbd72a4e4f Added module synopsis. 1999-02-01 21:27:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 68a8c69499 Take out just about everything and refer the reader to the os module. 1999-02-01 20:23:02 +00:00
Fred Drake b23ee1d899 Make the text generic, and call it os.path instead of posixpath. 1999-02-01 20:20:39 +00:00
Fred Drake 59d8b73cef Remove all references to posixpath; only refer to os.path. 
Formalize the xstat() documentation.
 1999-02-01 20:19:38 +00:00
Fred Drake 98be47e737 OSError description: "as the by the" --> "as the" 1999-02-01 16:17:40 +00:00
Fred Drake 7281b3b779 Updated comments on version of XML package needed. 1999-01-29 22:35:23 +00:00
Fred Drake 28e66d1c5e Added the info tarball to the tarballs target. Added the README to 
the info tarball.
 1999-01-29 22:23:25 +00:00
Fred Drake b2c59ab367 A README file for the info tarball. 1999-01-29 22:22:03 +00:00
Fred Drake 1dd152d036 Added support to handle \versionadded in a reasonable way. 1999-01-29 22:12:29 +00:00

Fred Drake 279ca75a5b Be a little smarter on some attribute values, making an assumption about 
the DTD.
 1999-01-29 21:35:50 +00:00
Fred Drake 3a7ff998ac fixup_descriptors(): Change the way we look for descriptor nodes; 
this takes 5 minutes off the conversion of the whole tree by
	reducing the number of tree-traversals from 14 to 1.
 1999-01-29 21:31:12 +00:00
Fred Drake 666e60095b Added the Doc/sgml/ directory to the tarball. 1999-01-29 21:22:55 +00:00
Fred Drake cb65781d93 Rewrite code that converts the little descriptor environments to build 
the right <signature>s and <description>.  This seems to work a lot
better now!
 1999-01-29 20:55:07 +00:00
Fred Drake 75930b31e2 Added table entries for \funcline and \funclineni. 1999-01-29 20:09:27 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 1804dc3c07 Document abspath() (implementation is forthcoming). 1999-01-29 18:05:05 +00:00
Fred Drake f339632da0 Define a general entity "&version;" that can be used as the current major 
version of the Python interpreter.  This is \version in the LaTeX format
of the documentation.
 1999-01-29 16:42:37 +00:00
Fred Drake fdfd50f815 Convert <version> to &version;. 1999-01-29 16:29:25 +00:00
Fred Drake 7859f17608 A few scribbles toward the DTD. 1999-01-29 16:21:20 +00:00
Fred Drake 6bcc53c109 Standard ISO entities. 1999-01-29 16:20:24 +00:00
Fred Drake 2eb07f0945 The OASIS Exchange table model public text. 1999-01-29 15:57:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 7dab6affba Update the docstring. 
Lots of changes to get the paragraph marking to work, and not go into
an infinite recursion.

Start to rationalize markup of method signatures; not complete.

find_all_elements():  similar to getElementsByTagName(), but operates
	on the not-quite-legal fragments we deal with here.
	Simplifies several individual transforms.

fixup_sectionauthors():  Convert \sectionauthor items to <author> just
	after the <section>'s <title>.
 1999-01-28 23:59:58 +00:00
Fred Drake 3f3b09657f Added table entries for \methodline, \methodlineni. 1999-01-28 23:49:37 +00:00
Fred Drake ae3e574170 "numberic" --> "numeric", two places 1999-01-28 23:21:49 +00:00
Fred Drake 1453a8caf9 Constructor arguments for classes should be called <args>. 1999-01-28 23:10:48 +00:00
Fred Drake 703b70e260 Added \modulesynopsis. 1999-01-28 19:30:49 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 6b86a42c7f Document -OO; "unsafe" optimization that removes docstrings. 
Marc-Andre Lemburg.
 1999-01-28 15:07:47 +00:00

Fred Drake 8d7919d754 Fragment of an info "dir" file for the Python documentation. 1999-01-27 18:49:44 +00:00
Fred Drake ffc4811a40 Simplify slightly. 1999-01-27 18:40:36 +00:00
Fred Drake c5efde8522 Don't build info for the Macintosh module reference by default; it 
doesn't do well.
 1999-01-27 18:30:16 +00:00
Fred Drake aa2aea0e79 \py@linkToName: New macro to consolidate support for most internal 
hyperlinking in the PDF version.  This also allows many of the
	macros that do this stuff to be a good bit more readable.
	Takes the target name and link content as parameters.

Use \py@linkToName for all internal links.
 1999-01-27 17:37:36 +00:00
Fred Drake 580f4ab5dc Added the files for the repr and ConfigParser modules. 1999-01-27 17:21:09 +00:00
Fred Drake 9d814c6805 Document the repr module. This removes the entire "Code objects and 
files, debugger etc." section from "Undocumented Modules"!
 1999-01-27 17:20:33 +00:00
Fred Drake da452bf6a7 Don't say that the module defines the "following functions" and then 
only describe one; say "following function" instead!

Merge the two one-sentence paragraphs into a single paragraph, so it
doesn't look too stupid.
 1999-01-27 15:48:23 +00:00
Fred Drake ebe2a12de8 Incorporate changes for patched version of ConfigParser. 1999-01-26 21:49:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 9f253dc3ff \py@modindex: Format the index entry for the module index more like 
that used in the "normal" index.  No visual difference, but
	more easily processed by helper scripts.
 1999-01-26 19:23:09 +00:00
Fred Drake bc866ce2e3 Documentation for the ConfigParser module, by Christopher G. Petrilli 
(petrilli@amber.org).
 1999-01-26 15:47:59 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9700e9becc Document the default for tabsize in expandtabs(). 1999-01-25 22:31:53 +00:00
Fred Drake a49a4eabbf Add "term" to AUTOCLOSE. 1999-01-22 22:48:24 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d1dbf633ed Header for PyObject_DelItem() mentioned non-existing 3rd argument. 1999-01-22 20:10:49 +00:00
Fred Drake 43278f01dc convert(): Added parameter "autoclose", which should be a sequence of 
general identifiers for which closing tags will be omitted
	when SGML is generated.  This can be used to tell the markup
	generator to drop stuff like </para>.  Note that it needs to
	be possible for the closing tag to *always* be omitted for it
	to be included in "autoclose".

main():  Added command-line option "-a" / "--autoclose" to set the
	list of general identifiers passed to the convert() function
	as the "autoclose" parameter.  The list may only be specified
	once (not additive) and GIs should be comma-separated.  The
	default list includes only "para".
 1999-01-20 20:35:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 0a5b8de5e2 Modified the "sgml" and "xml" targets to stop if the sub-makes fail in 
any subdirectory; don't continue with remaining subdirs.

Added "api", "ext", "lib", "mac", "ref", and "tut" targets to only do
submakes in those directories.  This is just a lot easier to use than
to cd into the subdir and use make.rules directly.
 1999-01-20 17:26:56 +00:00
Fred Drake 19a0dba342 Add caveat on partial dependence on the "cl" module, only available on 
IRIX systems.
 1999-01-20 16:26:09 +00:00
Fred Drake 9ea3e36419 Move the jpeg module to the SGI section; it is dependent on the "cl" 
module available on IRIX.
 1999-01-20 15:55:20 +00:00
Fred Drake 4259f0db04 create_module_info(): If there's a \moduleauthor, move it to an 
<author> inside the <moduleinfo> element.

Fix problems with paragraph identification.
 1999-01-19 23:09:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 36dfe58694 isnmtoken(), istoken(): Fix to ensure the regex has to match the 
entire attribute value.

Add ability to save list of "empty" elements to a file -- enabled by
constant in the code.
 1999-01-19 23:03:04 +00:00
Fred Drake 2664db9f76 handle_labels(): Fix problem for document fragments containing more 
than one "root" that prevented all the <label id=...> items
	from being promoted to id attributes on the enclosing chapter/
	section/... properly.
 1999-01-19 21:46:48 +00:00
Fred Drake a7998f650a Revised comments on null bytes in pattern string. 
Removed "New" from module synopsis.
 1999-01-19 20:00:08 +00:00
Fred Drake 6ffa445832 Fix second description of handling 2-digit years (last item in 
introductory text).
 1999-01-19 19:35:18 +00:00
Fred Drake d6ced7d199 convert(): Change the element name remapping to convert <refmodule> 
to <module link>.
 1999-01-19 17:11:23 +00:00
Fred Drake f82e4ab617 format_attrs(): Attempt a bit more minimization for SGML output. 1999-01-19 17:10:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 9bbdce5945 add_module_idx(), add_idx_hook(): 
Change the message printed before running buildindex.py;
	"Doing the index..." wasn't clear and could be misinterpreted
	with an inappropriate mindset.  ;-)
 1999-01-19 16:30:10 +00:00
Fred Drake 7eca8e5017 Fix typo spotted by Jeff MacDonald <jam@ans.net>. 1999-01-18 15:46:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 589bc63e84 Add a "tarball" target. 1999-01-14 22:35:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 6038f54b74 Adjust so that we are no longer using special entities for well-known 
names.  These are too much of a pain for occaissional authors.
 1999-01-14 21:44:56 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 53610caee2 for method getaddrlist(): Added a note clarifying that all named 
headers and their continuation lines are parsed.
 1999-01-14 21:26:54 +00:00
Fred Drake 3effeedad3 Shorten the name of the <rfc> "number" attribute to "num". 1999-01-14 21:18:52 +00:00
Fred Drake d24167baf2 Make <rfc> no longer an empty element but a container. The text 
currently generated by the LaTeX and LaTeX2HTML processes is generated
here as well, making it more flexible in the SGML version.

Reduce the <args> element so that <optional> goes away; just use
square brackets to indicate what's optional.  This makes it easier to
read than the LaTeX, and the processor can do any checking it needs to
in order to make sure it's legit.  Possible shortcoming: DSSSL
processors may need more explicit markup.  Can probably hack around it
for this case, but we'll see.
 1999-01-14 21:18:03 +00:00
Fred Drake f8ebb5521d Several new functions to re-write tables to be at least partly 
conformant with the OASIS Exchange model.  There's a little more
massage left to do, but not much.
 1999-01-14 19:45:38 +00:00
Fred Drake a50a1df588 Added clean and clobber targets. 1999-01-14 18:26:23 +00:00
Fred Drake 54bad44f25 Update to the latest version of Michael Ernst's script. 1999-01-14 18:17:07 +00:00

Fred Drake 7727416686 Add usage of the "driver" Makefile. 1999-01-14 18:12:33 +00:00
Fred Drake 9d1c3b565f Elaborate a comment on the format of the table that drives the 
conversion.
 1999-01-14 18:10:09 +00:00
Fred Drake d7acf02290 Adjustments to allow elements with subelements as parameters. This is 
used to deal with the table headings and entries.

An additional flag in the element table is used to indicate elements
which have no "general" content, but which do have subelement
content.  These must be flagged distinctly from empty elements.
Currently used for \lineii, \lineiii, and \lineiv.
 1999-01-14 17:38:12 +00:00
Fred Drake 79cbadc194 Added fixinfo.el to the list of dependencies. 1999-01-14 17:13:03 +00:00
Fred Drake 79ad1f19dc Escape special characters on output. 1999-01-14 17:06:09 +00:00
Fred Drake da71e315bb Update the comments on info files. 1999-01-13 23:02:38 +00:00
Fred Drake e36e4e6778 Use \refmodule when we say "use the XXX module instead". 
For the whatsound module, point to sndhdr.
 1999-01-13 17:11:52 +00:00
Fred Drake da94374a86 \seemodule: Fix so that each \seemodule entry gets its own paragraph, 
so they don't get run together when there's no blank line
	between them in the source.  The HTML conversion already did
	the right thing.

\refmodule:  Refer to a module, using a hyperlink in the PDF version.
	Visually the same as \module.
 1999-01-13 17:09:06 +00:00
Fred Drake 2581704dfa do_cmd_refmodule(): New function to support new \refmodule macro. 1999-01-13 17:06:34 +00:00
Fred Drake 8d43a2937b Added a few items. 1999-01-12 21:31:16 +00:00
Fred Drake fcb7adb6aa Fix the HTML tarball target to generate the HTML if needed instead of 
bombing.
 1999-01-12 20:32:39 +00:00
Fred Drake dd7610cac9 Bump the date. Seems like fun. ;-) 1999-01-12 19:51:03 +00:00
Fred Drake 701f10fbea Simplify command that extracts the number of pages from a PostScript 
file; use "grep -c" instead of "grep | wc -l | cut ... | tr ...".
 1999-01-12 19:28:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 39cddb7439 Added \modulesynopsis. 1999-01-12 19:22:11 +00:00
Fred Drake 03dd3efd5a <writer>.send_paragraph(): Clarify what needs to be done by this 
method and what it should not do.  (Specifically: handling
	breaking of last line of preceeding paragraph.)
 1999-01-12 18:33:47 +00:00
Fred Drake 5a0ca4e55c do_cmd_methodline(): Fixed reference to method name when generating 
the output HTML.
 1999-01-12 04:16:51 +00:00
Fred Drake 4856d01797 Removed a lot of unnecessary comment markers which cause unexplained 
numbers to appear in the HTML version of the manual.
 1999-01-12 04:15:20 +00:00
Fred Drake 8e2c9457a2 output_body(): For <address> elements, just skip, since they're 
always part of the page trailer.
 1999-01-11 22:30:34 +00:00
Fred Drake bb3b0028ba Patches describing the statvfs() and fstatvfs() functions. Additional 
text about large file support.

All new text by Steve Clift <clift@mail.anacapa.net>, with only minor
revision / addition of markup.
 1999-01-11 18:36:23 +00:00
Fred Drake b6584cac1e Remove the "lib-" prefix from the name of the info archive. 1999-01-08 15:49:45 +00:00
Fred Drake ed94dde4b9 No longer useful. 1999-01-08 15:48:47 +00:00
Fred Drake dd21c32169 It's finally gone! 1999-01-08 15:40:16 +00:00
Fred Drake f2b5374ba1 Remove obsolete files. 1999-01-08 15:34:06 +00:00
Fred Drake 78104a9b77 Replace most everything but the comment at the top. 1999-01-08 15:33:38 +00:00
Fred Drake c4e9263010 Add a few comments. 1999-01-08 15:32:27 +00:00
Fred Drake c58f346374 New support scripts for HTML->info conversion that use Michael Ernst's new 
conversion tools.
 1999-01-08 15:27:17 +00:00
Fred Drake 3fe1d32693 New conversion tools for HTML->info from Michael Ernst 
<mernst@cs.washington.edu>.

Thanks!
 1999-01-08 15:25:29 +00:00
Fred Drake 637ad47e61 convert(): Make sure no line has trailing whitespace. (docfixer.py 
checks for \n\n as a paragraph separator, LaTeX allows white
	space between the newlines.)
 1999-01-07 18:47:07 +00:00
Fred Drake c7dd3e11da Markup nit. 
Add module synopsis.
 1999-01-07 15:45:55 +00:00

 1999-01-06 23:14:14 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 87e611e441 Replace the docs for reduce with an adaptation of its docstring, which 
was actually clearer!

Document that the whatsound module is obsolete.
 1999-01-05 23:09:12 +00:00
Fred Drake a2e4017394 Shorten the synopsis that gets into the table of contents. 1999-01-05 22:54:49 +00:00
Fred Drake ccc627200a write_idxfile(): New function. Isolate format of the external index 
data file used by buildindex.py.

next_argument_id():  Removed; no longer used.

next_argument():  Doesn't use next_argument_id(), just does the work.

gen_target(), gen_target_name():  Removed, no longer used.  The only
	place that used them now does the (trivial) work directly.


Lots of little changes so we never have to pass around $br_id values
all over the place.  The only places they're used now new IDs are
generated as needed.

Fred Drake b75d021081 Typo: "TWELV" --> "TWELVE" 
Added note at top, since LaTeX style writers like to force name
changes when someone else makes a change to the style.  I'm sending a
note to the author reporting the error and asking for an updated
version.

This cannot be distributed in this form.  This will be resolved when I
get a response from Ulf Lindgren.

method)".  Multiple entries were collapsed in the index when
methods/members from multiple classes share the same name.
