1999-04-22 17:23:34 +00:00
Fred Drake c8993aad10 Logical markup and small nits.
Don't refer to the STDWIN chapter; chances are really good it wasn't
included.  ;-)

Fred Drake 47894d2858 Don't describe this module as being a popen() wrapper; that's a little
confusing.  This is clearly Unix-specific; label it as such.
1999-04-22 15:19:01 +00:00
Fred Drake a694e00085 Remove \platform declaration; this module is generic. 1999-04-22 15:14:11 +00:00
Fred Drake 5254a6d682 Move stat to the Generic chapter. 1999-04-22 15:01:44 +00:00
Fred Drake ca69a03dd6 Don't refer to the system documentation as "man pages"; too
Unix-centric.  Note that this can be used with the output of

comp.lang.python.
1999-04-22 14:06:36 +00:00
Fred Drake 693a2c6581 Script to locate uses of \module where the module referred to is not
the module being documented at that point in the documentation; these
are candidates for conversion to \refmodule, which produces a
hyperlink in the HTML and PDF versions of the output.
1999-04-22 13:08:09 +00:00
Fred Drake e0208cc83c Add a couple of items. 1999-04-22 13:05:52 +00:00
Fred Drake adade928be Fill in a lot of the blanks. Add a start to the LaTeX primer section.
Use Python-traditional XXX comments instead of square brackets that
aren't as obvious or usefully grepable.
1999-04-22 13:05:27 +00:00
Fred Drake 30a535c0f7 Added support for adding environment/macro parameters more cleanly:
\op adds an optional parameter, and \p adds a required parameter.
These are only defined in the context of the parameter list parameter
of the envdesc and macrodesc environments.
1999-04-22 13:03:49 +00:00
