Guido van Rossum 3cdb8f3286 Update the description and the example to the new functionality, which
is mostly concentrated in a generalized find_module() and the new

obsolete.
1997-09-09 20:53:37 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 593801142e Initial revision 1997-09-07 02:56:35 +00:00
Guido van Rossum f01dff7e93 Give in to Mike Meyer -- add *both* lib/python1.5/packages and
lib/site-python to the path (if they exist).  This is a reasonable
compromise.
1997-09-03 22:05:54 +00:00

Damn the criticism in c.l.p!

Fred Drake 289f97d0ea Changed description of SchedParams() in the following way:
\bar{Besocial} --> \var{besocial}
	     ^--- note case ----^

The fixed version matches the signature.  Changed "\bar{Besocial} gives ..."
to "The \var{besocial} flag gives ..." to keep from starting the sentence
with a lowercase token.

(The \bar{} --> \var{} change was required to keep LaTeX happy.)
1997-08-22 13:51:31 +00:00

version.  (1.5a2 got skipped for this.)
1997-07-25 13:14:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 12d9eac0a2 A couple of grammatical nits.
Re-sequenced the function descriptions so that the formatting is described
