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
