based on email from Ross Moore <ross@mpce.mq.edu.au>.

Set $HTML_VERSION to 4.0, since that's what we really generate (well,
4.0 "transitional").
 1998-10-20 18:14:20 +00:00

 1998-08-25 14:44:49 +00:00

 1998-08-24 20:30:07 +00:00

Fred Drake d0421dd448 spoking --> speaking 
object whose method this is --> object on which the method operates
 1998-08-24 17:57:20 +00:00
Fred Drake 637af13dca There is no <ISINPUT> element, just <ISINDEX>. ;-) 1998-08-21 20:02:06 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 42db27fedc Added an example that uses signal.alarm() to time out an os.open() that 
takes too long. This example relies on the fact that raising an
    exception in a signal handler causes the exception to be re-raised
    when the main line of the program resumes execution.  Is this guaranteed
    in CPython, or is this something that just happens to work by accident?

Also fixed a typo.
 1998-08-18 19:38:54 +00:00

Fred Drake a0e4b78233 img_tag(): For \n to be interpreted as a newline, the string must use double 
quote, not single quotes.  Ugh.
 1998-08-14 15:03:48 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling d22e25002a Clarify wording in the description of re.split 
Simplify the patterns in the examples for re.split

Fred Drake 7cfca6de2b Don't need these anymore.... 1998-08-13 22:05:09 +00:00
Fred Drake 062bc6e598 Do the magic to use the new buttons (with shorter names!) instead of the old 
ones.  Get the <IMG> width & height right.  New design for the navigation
bars, including the document title as well as the navigation links/buttons.
 1998-08-13 22:03:46 +00:00

Fred Drake 697c1c7325 Some minor updates. 1998-08-12 17:13:28 +00:00
Fred Drake eb7fe4f5a1 Massive cleanup: Use Makefiles in subdirs properly, move most of the 
detailed build rules to the subdirs.  Allow pretty much every useful target
to be built directly from the top dir (no change in output location).
 1998-08-12 17:08:37 +00:00
Fred Drake 07b12f2497 Re-written to actually perform the conversion instead of using a sub-make

 1998-08-12 17:06:03 +00:00

Fred Drake 3d865424a7 New makefile which only contains the source dependencies specific to each 
document.  The main Makefile will only contain rules and "system" dependencies.
 1998-08-12 16:16:49 +00:00
Fred Drake 370f3c9eb6 Bump RELEASE to 1.5.2a1. 1998-08-11 19:38:00 +00:00
Fred Drake f832f4cd34 Clean things up just a bit. 1998-08-11 19:36:35 +00:00

Fred Drake 9f7adc4f22 Get the <IMG> sizes right for the navigation buttons. 1998-08-11 19:33:38 +00:00
Fred Drake a69ada66d0 Ok, blank.pbm is free to go. 
The rest of these are new or replaced.  The buttons are now all the same
width.  They have the transparency set right.  They still need the attention
of a designer.  But they work, and we have a real button for the Modules
Index.
 1998-08-11 18:52:33 +00:00
Fred Drake 1b9b210abf I think this is the last of them. 1998-08-11 18:50:04 +00:00
Fred Drake 7aac918029 Gosh, there's a lot of them.... 1998-08-11 18:47:26 +00:00
Fred Drake 704be95237 More files never used here..... 1998-08-11 18:42:30 +00:00
Fred Drake e528458155 Icons only needed if using the change control marks, which are bogus. 1998-08-11 18:40:03 +00:00
Fred Drake c83d7cac07 Remove files we never used; l2h would only use these if you use the 
special "html" package, which we don't and won't.
 1998-08-11 18:31:35 +00:00
Fred Drake af06a0b4ee Use Perl's rename() function instead of system(); there's no need for two 
additional processes for each name change!
 1998-08-11 18:17:47 +00:00
Fred Drake 211f22c1b1 Added the test package under "Frameworks". 1998-08-11 18:13:31 +00:00

 1998-08-11 15:18:45 +00:00
Fred Drake f6b6bbceb6 Add a comment explaining that this script is probably not useful outside the 
standard Python documentation, since the mkhowto.sh script is.  Let there be
no doubts....
 1998-08-11 14:10:40 +00:00
Fred Drake 4d46487fe8 Make sure the icons/ directory is created even if only one document is 
converted.

Fred Drake 6aa5d482fb Control when/where navigation bars will appear: top & bottom of each page. 
Include an additional button to the module index in the nav. bars if we
generate a module index.  Still need a button image, but the ALT text should
do for now.
 1998-08-11 03:14:50 +00:00
Fred Drake bc74ca5203 Add a link to the Macintosh Module Reference here, too. 1998-08-10 21:48:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 295da24eaf New section header style. 
Fix up a few synopses.
 1998-08-10 19:42:37 +00:00

do_cmd_sectionauthor():  Parallel the new macros.
 1998-08-10 19:40:44 +00:00

	insert_index().
 1998-08-07 20:51:58 +00:00
Fred Drake 077fffa874 The letter headings must be requested explicitly with --letters. 1998-08-07 20:49:54 +00:00
Fred Drake aa3f9fb7d5 By default, use a two-column index. 1998-08-07 19:52:37 +00:00
Fred Drake 7cbf462acf Allow multi-column indexes to be produced. 1998-08-07 19:50:13 +00:00
Fred Drake 66da9d69fc re is standard, not built-in. 1998-08-07 18:57:18 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ed9dcc10f8 Clarify that the Python interpreter lock need *not* be held by 
PyInterpreterState_New() and PyThreadState_New() -- but that you may
use it to serialize calls to them.
 1998-08-07 18:28:03 +00:00
Guido van Rossum cdf6af1233 Document gethostbyname_ex(). 1998-08-07 18:07:36 +00:00
Fred Drake 96e11029b8 Updated list of Library Reference files. 
Added some dependencies to some of the HTML generation targets.
 1998-08-07 18:01:37 +00:00
Guido van Rossum aee5e26f4b Add warning that mutable argument defaults are evaluated only once; 
with examples and workaround.  This keeps coming up, and I believe
that this section in the tutorial may have been (in part) the source
of the confusion.  While it didn't show examples with [] for a default,
it also didn't emphasize enough why that would be a bad idea, and
while it did say that defaults are evaluated at the point of function
definition, the example was not relevant for this issue.
 1998-08-07 17:45:09 +00:00
Fred Drake 1a0b872665 At least mark the URL to the Packages essay using \url. 1998-08-07 17:40:20 +00:00

Fred Drake 9940bd717c Variant of AMK's patch to produce text versions of HOWTO documents. 
This ensures that the text version uses latex2html's -split 1 option, without
affecting HTML produced in the same run, and also minimizes the number of
l2h runs needed if --split 1 was used for an HTML run.

Fred Drake 11300cc71e build_html(): Simplify, so there's only one version of the latex2html 
command line.

l2hoption():  Convenience function, to write out an option to the aux. init.
	file only if set.

Added --iconserver option to set the $ICONSERVER variable in latex2html; this
requires the use of an auxillary init. file since this can't be initialized
using a standard latex2html command-line option.  So the aux. init. file is
used for just about all the special options since it has to be written anyway
when $ICONSERVER needs to be set.
